Confession

She stood there with her lips turning blue from the cold, her eyes glowing sliver and her hair a blazing color of bronze. He stood close to her but yet not close enough to touch, and he watched her smile fade. The moment he opened his mouth, she knew her fate was sealed. As the words formed her lips, she had to remind her self to take deep breaths. But the moment the word love was spoken; she fell hard to her knees. Still talking the boy couldn't bare to look at her, such a fierce steel breaking. When he finally finished with the words "I'm sorry" her ragged breaths calmed and he looked down. Her cheeks were stained black with tears; richly gray water swarmed the beauty of her eyes, and her fingers clawed the ground as if looking for something to hold onto. Then all of it stopped. She looked at him and said " Love is such a lie. Why do they call it 'true' love?" and with a smile, she gracefully fell to the darkened concrete, and drew in one last shaky breath. All he could do was stare with his mouth open slightly. He couldn't move, thinking, what the hell just happened. While he was trying to believe and understand what was going on, a bystander had called for help. An ambulance came and she was rushed to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead. When the doctor on call, Mr. White, told the boy of her death, he asked the only question that came to mind. "Do you mind me asking, what the cause of death was?" The doctor stared at him and said, "internal bleeding" and started to walk away. "How" the boy called out. The doctor turned to him and said, "Do you really wish to know my boy?" With tears in his eyes he replied "More then anything." The doctor took in his tears and broke. "Her heart was bleeding. It was as if her heart was a piece of glass, and it had little cracks in it, yet something was holding it together. Then that something left, and her heart shattered, as if someone ripped off the tape holding it there. In my eyes this was murder, for best way to put it is... she died from a broken heart." The boy caught his breath, fell to his chair, looked at the doctor and whispered, "I confess."
