I stood there in the rain looking at him as he stare back at me. it felt like there was a thick glass wall separating us.. It was like we were in a different time and that wall was the border.. and yet, there were no words to speak.. just tears that mixed with the raindrops.. drowning me... and clouding him.. I imagined the wall would break into pieces, and then I would run to him and he will hold me.. and he will say the words I wanted to hear.. Yesterday, I heard he was leaving soon, that's why I'm here.. I need to see him. Just one last time. Thinking, perhaps, perhaps if I see him.. He would change his mind.. But- is that what I want? Do I really want to stop him from conquering his dreams? So today, we're standing here.. face to face. just staring.. By the look in his face I can tell he was hurting.. or perhaps I was hurting too much that I seem to just want to see what I want to see.. and feel what I want to feel. He looked away. He was ready to leave. He was ready to forget. He was ready to accept. He was ready to move on.. He was ready.. to start a life without me. I felt betrayed.. Betrayed by my feelings.. Betrayed by fate. I felt like I was losing everything I ever had. And I was not even given an option.. Nor even offered an explanation.. Not even given an apology.. All this time, I thought it was going to be forever.. I believed in his dreams, I trusted his freedom. Those dreams are now taking him away. That freedom is now holding me back. I called his name.. I guess this will be last time. I smiled.. painfully..and said goodbye. Stories must end..and someone has to let go. Today, he's ending our story.. and I'm the one who should let go. He held my hand. I guess this is it for us. I think it's been pre-decided that; he will walk in and move me.. and eventually leave my side. he turned away.. and walked... slowly.. heavily.. and tears fall down endlessly. can you be my friend in facebook: mamhiebear@yahoo.com |
