Serious as a..

Silly.

Stopped.

My heart stopped beating.

Not because of you, not because of us.

Not because of the tears, not because of the smiles

Not because of the love we left behind.

Not because of the words, not because of the silence.

Not because we were strangers one day.

Stopped.

My heart stopped beating.

Because I ate too much cookie-dough.
