(him)

 She said she didn't want to hurt me 

She said she'd tried her best. 

Her love for me was just words

 Something she says she regrets. 

My heart thudded in my chest,

 though I knew this was inevitable

 I wished I wasn't listening to her saying the words 

which I knew in my heart to be true 

My head pounded

 Her voice sounded far away.

 I wished I weren't here.

 I wished I didn't love her so much.

 ~ 

'I can't, I don't love you...I tried to fall in love with you..

 I just couldn't...I'm so sorry....You're perfect, it's my fault..

 I could never love you the way you deserve...' 

Shaking my head, denying the truth. 

Telling her I'm sorry.

 Begging. 

P l e a d i n g. 

'You'll find another girl.'

 Don't leave me. 

You're the only one I love.

 I couldn't say it.

 I had no voice. 

She left.

 Only sunlight took her place. 

Only silence.
