Ken
She was in my arms, and now she's not. I keep trying to get her out of my mind, but then I think that maybe if I say her name frequently enough, she'll spawn from my lips and live with me again. She was here. Why did I ever let her go? Why did I let others decide our lives for us? She was mine for a month, and now I'm supposed to live my entire life trying to find a parallel to the warmth she gave me. I tried talking to her. She wouldn't pick up. I tried letting her go. I couldn't. At that moment, I knew why Amara started smoking. Horrible habbit, really. Leaves a bad taste in your mouth, and a horrible aching in your lungs, but it reminded me of her, so I smoked, then smoked some more, then tried to quit, but it felt like a betrayal of her memory, so I stopped trying to quit. I tried dating, but the not-Amara asked me why I had a playlist that was named after a girl, so I broke it off with her. I lost my abs, and a ton of weight, for I wasn't eating nor doing sports. What was the point? She was gone. The Amara I still love so deeply wasn't in my life anymore. I thought about ending it all, but I heard her voice telling me to go see a specialist. I never did, but couldn't bring myself to hurt her memory by killing myself. The idea persisted, yet remained just that: an idea.
