A Little Lost

  It has felt like a thousand days had past. A thousand years have gone by. It started with a single word and it felt right. Yet as the years had gone by it started to become a routine. The weight on my right ring finger started to feel like a chain. I cannot seem to remember why it even started. 

I remembered the words but the feeling has been lost. I don't remember what I had felt before when it had just started. The happiness I used to feel when I said "yes" seems to be too vague now. I do not remember what I had felt before. No matter how much I wish for it, it would not return but as I sign the papers and lift my finger of the chain like weight it seems to have I felt a rush of emotions come over me. 

Without realizing it tears have drenched my cheeks and an ache in my heart grew slowly. But it was too late. I may have regained my memories but it was a second, a single second too late for as I watch him sign the papers I see he has been too hurt to forgive me. Maybe I should have tried harder to regain my memories. My heart now is filled with longing and regret. What a way the world has to enlighten me of my mistake, what a painful way it has to use somebody for it.
