All I remembered was a stream of tears rolling down my cheekbones as I told the sky all my secrets. Soon the secrets turned into screams and then it turned silent. As if nothing happened. I gathered myself brushing away the tears that stained my cheeks. Then it hit me I was crying over you. The one that took me away from this boiling world. Then you left me. I sat back down wondering what I had done.
"I don't love you."
Your words kept replying in my head. No explanation just a simple four words with no emotion. I thought I told the sky all my secrets but you were my sky. And I was screaming for you not to go. And then everything became silent. Every word became a background noise and all I could hear was your words in my head on repeat. You kept me alive. You were my air, water, food and emotion. Everything I ever needed.
