The beginning of the end
It would start slowly, the small swift gentle pain then the hot tears. They warmed up his cheeks as he sat by himself, Wondering deep within if there was anything wrong. He got up, well at least he tried but there was no energy for that. His heart ached and his vision was hazy. So what if he managed to get up, he couldn't see clearly, there was no point in walking away.
His mind always did play tricks with him, it remembered, just what he was trying to forget, and once the brain remembered, the heart felt and on and on the chain went by. Pain and tears, regret and depression and all others alike. A small voice called up behind him, it got close and he felt a gentle touch upon his shoulder.
"Are you okay?" It asked, he turned towards the voice and a woman stood there worried look upon her face. "Okay.., how can I be okay?... Wasn't it you who......." he couldn't complete that sentence he felt anger rise within him, he raised up his fist in an attempt to stop this feeling and he ended up punching against the wall, his fingers bled.
"Please, I'm sorry 😔, I didn't mean to..." he cut her short. "Save your apologies. What's done is done and once you break a heart it can't be held back together with glue and apologies!" He felt strength this time, not enough to walk away, but enough to escape the conversation that was going on. The woman stood by herself, looking at him ever so pitiful, regret and desire in her eyes. She tried to reach for him but he had already got up and started to walk away. So there she was left, the place where she found him crying, she stood there crying too her vision getting hazy untill she couldn't see anymore, she got out her handkerchief to wipe her eyes and when she was done blinked momentarily and raised her head and he was gone never to be heard off again.
