Vulnerability is the death knell. — A story in 100 words.

“Because if you don’t talk about it — then it isn’t love.”

For her, it’s about vulnerability.
“YOU should embrace it. It’s a strength, not a weakness.”
“You’re afraid!”

For him, he wanted more. Just a little …more.
“Because YOU don’t feel it? Or won’t make room for it?”
“You’re afraid.”

Hearts GO broken by what’s unsaid.
“Vulnerability? Fine— I love you.”
She walked out.

She walked back in: “Don’t say that. You know I can’t. Not now.”
“I didn’t ask you to.”
She smiled that smile: “Yea, you kinda did.”

Hearts GET broken by what IS said.
Vulnerability? 
Fuck.
That.
