The Lonely Heart
As his rough hand touched so lightly on her arm, she knew they were meant to be. The feeling of secureness and love-struck her body like a Semi Truck, how was he supposed to be her best friend. She knew it would be hard, but she also knew that she needed him. His presence brought the chills from the artic onto her skin, but when he was closer she felt warm in his presence. Who was he and why did he tempt her so much, he called her friend, but his body called her partner. She knew that the only way to keep close was to watch as his life pass by, from a friendly distance. She giggled and blushed a deep rose-red when he made her laugh, but when he made her cry the tears from the ocean, until it flowed into a river. Now here she sat on his wedding day, the happiest day for all, as she held her tears and smiled the most painful smile ever.
As he laughed with the family of his maiden, he watched her from afar. She looked pained, but why was she pained on the happiest day of his life. The one only god lifted a weight from his shoulders, but why did he still feel it. It clung to him like a leach after a nice dip on a warm day, he knew that the only way to get it off was to not think about it but it would always hold him down. He felt her despair for him through these years, but she stayed afar and always assured him he was doing what was best. But why did she look so pained like a deer meeting its fate, when he caught her lonely eyes in his. He felt hooked to her like an invisible laso that held him near her, what did this god want from him. He was Faithfull, and always praised the Lord every day. So why was he making him feel so lonely when everybody was so near.
She couldn't stand the way it felt in the air, as if everyone was watching her heart shatter like glass. When she got to the far misty, nippy area from the wedding she looked out to the night stars. Remembering the night when they had kissed, it felt as if she was kissed by an Angel, but it stopped to quickly, He regretted it she could see it in his eyes, so she pushed it into a locket in her heart and threw the key away. But as she stared into the stars she wondered was she missing the one thing that made her be herself. Why was she alone? what held her back these years? Why had she held it on for so many years? He probably forgot about it and here she is holding onto it like a kid with a firefly. Never wanting to let it go because it would mean she would have to let him go. She shouldn't be sitting here contemplating the theory of life, she knew she had to leave or she never would. So as she left she let him go in the wind, like a bird feather flying in the wind. Maybe possibly one day, it will come back to her but for now, it needed to be let go.
