It was as though a speeding train had come crushing into my heart, leaving a deep hole in my yearning spirit. A hole only he could fill, but how could I expect that of him when he doesn't even know what caused it.
I swallowed my dry spit, and tried desperately not to look remotely like the pathetic woman I felt like.
It was the same everyday; myself and I, against my emotions and my heart. It was exhausting. There were time when I felt like giving in, after all I am human. But I'm still here, fighting this neverending war. Of course I knew it was a matter of time before it all came crushing down, I knew that there was going to be a day where I couldn't hold it in any longer, the cracks were starting to show. And I had finaly decided that this is it, this summer I'm going to end this on a high note.
Its now or never, I told myself as I took the slow calculated steps towards him. As I drew near and nearer, my heart felt like the wings of bird, flapping in the air, trying to do what it was intended to do, fly. But the closer I got, the harder it seemed.
I clenched my fingers into a fist, and took a deep breath. Calculating my every move and every word, I stopped right beside him. He swayed his body slightly, and looked down at me. His eye brows drew together, obviously in curiousity of why I was here.
My whole being screamed no, and as I began to obey, his eyes met mine and in that moment I knew this is something I have to do. Or else I will go insane.
