Domino Effect Poem by Brandi Young

I know what's going to be said,
Before it's spoken.
I know whats going to happen,
Before it happens.

All because it's happen before,
I know what's going to happen,
Step by step,
It's all the same.

Nothing has changed about heartbreak,
It still hurts,
It still makes you cry,
It still makes you want to die.

All the emotions occur on cue,
First sadness swells, followed by anger and disbelief,
Then numbness sets in
It's a domino effect.
