Memories
Unrequited Love 143
XxXxX
It was a beautiful sunny day,
Despite the chills of winter in the air.
I saw him in the corner of my eye
And ran towards him like a cheetah after its prey.
I was vicious yet graceful while tackling him to the ground.
He smiled up at me with those midnight blue eyes and hair,
He sat up laughing while I turned beet red.
We walked hand-in hand towards 'our tree'
And sat down on the hill of snow
While lost in our thoughts,
We were wishing of whimsical worlds.
The class bell rang and we got up slowly not wanting to leave
He stopped me and stared into my honey golden eyes
He said "I love you like fish loves water or as a…"
I stopped him with my lips as we kissed silently.
We pull away reluctantly startled by an ear piercing scream
I ran ahead leaving him behind, the scream sounded vaguely familiar.
I saw a man looming over Rima
With a dagger over her still heart
I stared silently with my eyes open wide
It seemed like my friend was already as good as dead
Then he whipped a gun out from his pocket,
Pointing it towards me I was a statue unable to move.
A click of the gun and my own thoughts screamed at me.
The insanity of hell from within.
Crimson blood splattered everywhere
I thought I was dead but felt no pain.
That's when I saw him smile at me as he crumpled to the ground
The world flew in fast forward
Police barged in,
The killer tried to run,
He slumped to the ground,
I fell on my knees crying
As my tear streaked face showed no emotions.
I held him in my arms as his hand caressed my face
He was trying to comfort me I realized
When it should have been the other way around.
I whispered one last "I love you"
And he collapsed in my arms quietly.
That was eight years ago
Now as I step up to go and make my wedding toast
My mind musters several maddening memories
Due to the death of the thing I cared for the most;
My articulated thoughts and my very own being.
