Heartbreak

by William Renderos   Nov 13, 2006


The night is dark, everyone is quiet
I awake with sudden rush of fear.
Why? Why did you do what you did?
Where's my love, my shorty, mi chiquita?
Where did you run off too?
Wait for me I'm coming don't leave me behind.
Are you behind the bushes or trees?
NO. Where are you? Why do you taunt me?
Stop! Stop! Please stop speaking!
Get out! Get out of my head.
If you're not going to love me, get away from me.
But chiquita... i need you. i can't... I can't live.
Why this torture god? Why?
Why do i live? What's my purpose?
The love of my life has left me to suffer.
Without care, without explanation.
Why?! Why love when all that occurs is heartbreak.
I need to know why my love?
Why destroy the most perfect relationship?
We had the best 2 1/2 yrs. or our lives!
We went through thick and thin.
Damnit. We had already planned for marriage!
Two kids! What about Will Jr.?
How can you do this to us? To me?!
You were happy just two hours ago.
We were laughing and joking.
Am i a bad person?
Do i not deserve anything good?
I know I screwed up in February.
I know i made a mistake. I changed!
You Know i had changed!
We got closer, emotionally, physically, mentally.
Now you're gonna toss it all away? For what?
What's worth living?
I scream, waking those around.
Some quiver, others stare.
Suddenly, i fall. My heart on the ground.
Wait... who's there?
Who's trying to help me up?
Chiquita... is that you?!
