That one moment..

That one moment. That one moment, a few of us were unlucky enough, or lucky enough to endure. Endure, yes, you read that right. One cannot simply glide through that moment, one endures it, for such is the gravity of it weighing down upon you. That one moment which changes every single thing in your world, or so it seems, on afterthought. 
It turns your world upside down, everything around you slowly tilting topsy-turvy. The moment when you realise, for want of a better way of putting it, that everything you believed in deeply, was a lie. When something that meant the world to you was a plain farce. 
Silence resounds in your ears. You become oblivious to the world, shutting it out. You can't see anything, you can't hear anything, you just feel the truth hitting you, hard at that. Seconds seem like hours. Everything you had built up inside you just crumbles into dust. The only thing you seem to perceive is the knot in your heart being pulled tighter and tighter. Your heart beats faster and faster keeping up with the adrenaline. Your nose tingles with the bitter-sweet softness of a tear springing out from your eye, now warm and moist. You contort your eyes, trying to hold them back, your jaw begins to tremble. A chill runs through your self, when suddenly warmth is flooding though you. A sigh is spent, the knot loosens and goosebumps rise. 
All at once, in that one moment..
