-Technically this a short story LMAO <33-

.
I got asked.

"What ran through your mind,
When you found out she cheated?"

I leaned back,
Looked up at the wooden ceiling,
Took a deep breath,
And simply said;

"It didn't hurt as much as it should have."

"Well,
Why not?"

I smirked to myself,
The same words flooded my mind.

"I always knew she'd find someone prettier."

The woman I was talking to,
glanced at her watch,
and looked back at me.

"That's all the time we have today."

I grab my things and walked out,
I walked down the busy street.

People surrounded me,
But i kept my eyes to myself.

Sometimes,
I tell myself that I should have know she wouldn't stay with me.

I'm not mad at her.

I wouldn't stay with myself either.

But,
I could have saved myself all this sorrow.

All this heartbreak,
All this guilt.

Maybe I annoyed her,
Maybe I pissed her off.

I don't know,
All I know is;

She took one look at that bombshell of a girl.
She had perfect skin,
Perfect hair,
Perfect eyes.

She saw her,
Then just like that.

She was gone.

No warning,
No talking about her feelings for me,
That had clearly disappeared.

Not a damn thing.

I sat in the dust,
And watched her walk away from me.

With someone,
Much prettier,
Much more beautiful,
Than me.
