Love

Love is not for me.
I see you from across the room.
You're thinking the same thing.
I look away and I look at the pictures.
A tear rolls down my cheek.
Why is all I can ask.
Why her?
What does she have that I don't?
But they will never get answered.
He broke my heart
but I still seem to love him.
I get up to leave but you tell me with your eyes to stay and talk.
I sit next to you feeling awkward.
You broke the silence and told me, I loved her.
I think about the one I loved and I also reply, I loved him also.
I feel stupid just sitting here and talking about him.
He doesn't care about me.
He only cares about her.
I get up and try to run but you grab my arm and I turn to look at you, with tears in my eyes.
He's not worth your tears, you reply.
I try to get away but you hold on tighter.
Let go of me, I shout.
You came closer and pulled my arm and we were in a hug.
What are you doing? I ask.
But you don't reply.
More tears roll down my cheeks.
I will always be here with you, so please don't cry anymore, you reply as I close my eyes.
Everything will get better, you add.
