  2. I tried to stand up … but for the third time in a row I failed. The pull of gravity was too strong for my old body to overcome. Oh, sweet memories of youth…

  3. The walls are tumbling
    falling down
    in an explosion
    of brick, rubble
    there is no time for thought
    only movement
    and panicked movement, at that:
    the walls are tumbling
    and there are people
    trapped behind them
    lost,
    not sure where to go
    what to do
    thundering
    clattering
    the walls are tumbling.

  4. i fall down. not from exhaustion but from mental lapse in what i know to be true. Is there no more freedom of me?

  5. There’s a lot of things I think about when I hear “collapse.” My first thought was about emotional collapse – pure, earth-shattering defeat. I also thought about something people like to talk about a lot – the “collapse of Western civilization.” Why is it always just Western civilization that collapses, though? The countries in the East are as advanced and as vulnerable to collapse as the West now. But that’s politics and no fun.

  6. I stood there watching the face of my enemy completely change from hatred to unbelievable shock. Her mocking words caused something inside me to snap. when i pushed her i did not think of the flight of stairs right behind her. As i watched her body collapse to the floor. i could not control the smirk the creeped its way unto my once innocent face.

  10. tengo miedo a colapsar sin antes perder la fe eh de estar ahi para ti, por siempre, no dejare que mi alma reviente , estare ahi tan presente y tan constante para ti como siempre, deja que el sentimiento te abraze , no me dejes antes , no quieres morirte sin saber que haz nacido para amarme, para experimentar un par de cosas, no kiero dejarte sin sentirte aunque sea un instante .

  14. i am afraid of a lot. the ones that can hurt me are the closest to me. damned if you do, damned if you don’t. life is full of twists and turns, never knowing the intentions of humans. we are one, we are evil, we are alone.

  15. My heart stops.
    I fall.
    My body does not respond.
    My will is tossed against it.
    ‘Get up.’
    ‘Get up.’
    My body, deaf, cannot hear it.
    ‘Get up.’ Was the constant plea.
    Unfortunately, I could not.

  19. Wenn jemand zusammenbricht oder etwas. Es kann ein großer Schaden sein oder eine Tragödie, vielleicht nur ein Medienereignis, je nach Perspektive. Das Grauen, das mit dem Begriff verbunden ist, ist rein subjektiv. Keiner kann sagen, ob ein Kollaps wirklich schlimm ist. Es ist ein normales Phänomen, erschreckt vielleicht, weil es so unerwartet kommt.

  34. I heard a rumble, a shaking that made the sky tremble and blur. The ground did a Latin step, and then repeated the new rhythm in a loop of doom. Then the melting of all landscape, caving as though a lever had been pulled on a gallows, and the earth, perched on its tenuous ledge, decided she was ripe, and surrendered to the abyss.

    then wake up for another day and get ready to collapse again.
