Broken Love Story
she walk home
freshly fallen leaves crunch
under her boots
wind whistles in her ears
blowing her hair
across her tear stained face
autumn begs for attention
fresh tears fall down her face
teeth clenched in frustration
hands gripping her books
eyes straight ahead
searching
her own mind for a
explanation
tears still falling
she walks quickly, with no direction
no purpose but to get away
far away
she hears footsteps
that are not hers
a hand grabs her arm
turns her around
its him
him, the reason for the tears
making their way slowly down her face
the reason her heart beats
a mile a minute
the reason she can barely breathe
the reason for everything
"whats wrong?
what did i do?"
he asked, confused,
worried
she frees her arm from his grip
begins to turn away
"wait" he says,
she pauses
refusing to look
into his pale blue eyes
but focuses her gaze on a flying bird
in the distance
free bird, high bird, beautiful bird,
free bird
"tell me" he begs for understanding
"please just tell me what's wrong"
"I...."
she chokes on her words
"what? what did i do?"
"you made me love you"
secrets out
heart breaks open
she walks away
