I still have nightmares.
The day I broke.
The day he broke me.
The day I LET him break me.
The park bench felt harder than usual.
The rain fell gently as the sky turned grey
My throat. Lumpy.
He wouldn't let me explain. He wouldn't let me tell him how I truly felt.
His mind was made up.
He didn't know what I was going through. He didn't let me tell him. He didn't want to know. He didn't. ..
Care.
He tore my heart out. Ripped it to shreds as the words tumbled out of his mouth with ease.
I watched as it fell onto the leaf soaked ground.
Years. Of our
(So - called)
Love
Meant nothing.
I.
Meant nothing. When he was everything. He wss MY everything. And. I was. Nothing. To him. Ever.
.....
He kept everything in. Even as I begged for the truth. Even though I knew the truth. And loved him through it all.
I still have nightmares.
It still haunts me.
And ive lost so much in the process.
And ...
The nightmares linger on. Ever so often. They creep into my night.
Giving me the shivers.
Reminding me.
.... I can never let that happen again.
