teeth clench as my eyelids struggle to hold each tear back.
he walks through me, as if i am non-existent, as if i had no affect on his heart, like he did mine.
i clutch my chest as i gasp for air.
i am nothing to him. i used to be, but not anymore. Just a stranger, or even worse. invisible.
SHE now, is his everything.
where our fingers once intertwined so perfectly, now, is where hers belong.
my heart aches for his touch as he strokes his fingers across her face.
his eyes ONLY on her, giving himself completely to her with no hesitation.
wishing, pleading, praying for his tender fingers to come across mine one last time.
to feel the comfort of his heart beat as i secure my arms around his body, never intending to let go.
as reality stings my body, i automatically numb myself from the pain.
i can’t lose myself to this pain, at least not now. before it overcomes me, without no escape back to this sanity.
my heart falters at each thought of him with her.
as each word falls from his lips, mouthing it cautiously and precisely to her..
my soul is ready to shatter. tears sting my eyes, as the pain stabs me over and over again.
His eyes, gazing into hers.
“i love you”.
He says.
words, never meant for me.
