The city was enveloped in total darkness leaving me on a quest for closure. To seal the chapters of this lingering burden. The moon grimaced upon the city. My heart was pacing, my thoughts frantic. Eerie images sorrounding me. People cloaked in shadows. Headlights on cars and buses casting the only light along the sidewalks. My mind was determined, and my heart was conflicted. I had to decide if I was going into the unknown for a final resolution , or simply to win you back. I decided whatever the outcome, I was going to find you and tell you everything that haunted me for the last seven days. Once I made it past the angst and the madness, and made my way to you, there you were with your sorry face, childlike, illuminated with the candleligths glow. In wonder and disbelief that I had the courage to cross the city for this occassion. The golden momonent, the moment I longed for. To ask you if you had reason to leave unnanounced like you did. If one argument was what it took to say "Enough!". To ask you if you were happy leaving love behind. To question if every "I love you", every embrace, every slow dance, every kiss, was simply a hoax.. just a lie. With your eyes locked to mine, you sincerely replied "No". Which tore at my soul, creating the void which still resides inside. The war, still raging inside of me. This pandoras box, will remained unopened. No one will obtain what you once had the previlege to recieve. When the years pass by, and you reminisce in silent reverie... I hope you can look back at us and remember it was you who let true love walk out that door... not me.Y
