Love Me Back

Prologue

I lean against the headboard holding the frame which held our picture, my eyes draw to your smile, the smile that used to light up my world. The smile which used to be pressed against my own lips making me fall for you even more. Only I no longer feel that way. I have an emptiness within me, I cry each night holding this picture in my embrace, tears slide down my cheeks for you no longer remember me.

I was once known as Jess Carter, your wife. But now… It seems not one person recalls a woman named Jess in your life, I feel as if you’ve wiped me completely, from your mind, heart and soul. Did you not say we were once soul mates? Did you not say wherever we may be, we’re still going to be with one another?

It has come to this day where you dare not look at me, like as if you find me repulsive, I was once the woman you couldn’t get your hands off, I was the woman who you wrapped your body around in bed each night, I was the woman who you loved with all of your heart, then why can you not remember me?

I lie back settling in, cuddling the picture to my heart as I close my eyes, I’m feeling exhausted for I have been trying to come up with ways to make you notice me again. I can only pray for you to recognize me, remember me, recall the love we shared. All I want is for you to love me back. Just as I have loved you, I still love you and I always will for I have promised you.
