A Topic: Heartbreak

Heartbreak. I've been studying its complexities for years--but not that many, I'm only 17. There has to be a way avoid its poison influence.
There is the coward's solution of withdrawal and seclusion where chances escape from the ensconced personages. A house, a workplace, a gathering of those of same sex to avoid temptation with contempt. Places are checkpoints veiled with a stare caught on the ground. Visions come of ambitions, goals, accomplishment, always refraining from scenes of conjointed passion pleasure. The mind is cluttered with things of need, not the whim of wandering wants or the fruit of unreasonable thought. Never unreasonable thought. Thoughts of escaping from strict regiment, then comes danger.
Some are not as severe with their restriction, but only disconnect in feelings and commitments, keeping themselves within regular routine. Boyfriends and girlfriends are even part of a year's experience, but never do three vulnerable syllables pass the lips. Vulnerability is totally avoided. Relationships equate to events on a calendar, planned out and predicable. Cut ties when he comes to close.
The poison of heartbreak drives me to elude my past behavior. Every lover transformed to an attacker. But what could he want when there's nothing where my heart used to be?
