Ok - this is just a story - fictional....no really...a fable of sorts...of promises unkept, of truths hidden or misbelieved.
Once there was a girl and once there was a boy, and they met in the way of such things, and in the way of such things, she fell in love and gave him her heart - but he, while he said he did, pulled away and came back and pulled away again...but in between they were happy in the way of such things and spent hours together, days, weeks, months passed and the girl, in the way of such things, fell deeper and deeper in love. The boy did not, although the girl thought he did.
Then one day, a day of sunshine a bright blue light, he told her their paths were diverging, he had to follow his heart to a country far away, In one second her heart shattered and she fought, fought for what she thought was true and real, what he had made her believe.
But in the way of such things, she came to settle for less, for friendship and physical love from this boy who was drawn to her,and promised her love in time.
And in the way of such things they created a life, and the boy grew afraid and made the girl choose between him and this new little life which she loved - it was his possible love or this new life.
And she in the way of such things, chose him, for she believed in her love for him and that he was falling back in love with her.
But it hurt, how it hurt, and it still does.
And in the way of such things the boy left for his far away land on a wave of promises of love and life when he returned, but yet another bright blue day she recieved a letter, electronically, saying he was wrong, there was no true love, there was no future.
And the girls heart shattered into a million shards, scattered to the winds, for she had believed him and given up a life for him, killed a life for him.
So now she sits and mourns the lost life, the lost boy she knew for though she loves him no longer, her heart is not whole. And in the way of such things the world around her reminds her of him and this causes more tears than it is worth.
fictional, totally, yet i sit here and cry
