Preface
"Please Edward," I pleaded, kneeling before his hunched form and taking his icy hand in mine. "Don't leave me after all you've done."
"Isabella," he breathed, taking his hand from me and placing it on my numb cheek. "This would never turn out. We're not meant to be together."
A sob choked from my throat as he rose and turned from me. I stood and grabbed his hand. He spun around and faced me.
"Please, Bella." His eyes were shut as he whispered to me. "Don't do this. Don't make this any harder."
"B-b-but-"
"Sh-h-h." He pressed a single frigid finger to my lips. "Just let me go."
"I can't," I blurted. "I can't let you out of my life."
He only stared at me, not a single sign of emotional stress or love on his perfect face.
"Edward," I paused, searching his eyes for some meaning, some feeling. There was none. "Edward, I love you!"
A spark lit his eyes, but he turned away before I could decide whether or not it was from anger or happiness.
"Bella, please!" He begged. "Never say that. You don't love me."
"But I do!" I insisted. "And if you don't feel that way all you have to do is tell me."
His grip on my hand tightened to the point where it almost hurt.
"Bella, listen to me carefully." He didn't look at me as he spoke and he sounded as though he was speaking through clenched teeth. "I will never love you. I only loved Alexa and you can't ever, nor will ever, take her spot in my life."
I dropped his hand like it burned me.
"Edward."
He couldn't mean it. After everything we've gone through, and he just now tells me he doesn't love me.
"Goodbye, Isabella."
I watched blurry-eyed as he disappeared down the dimly-lit street, leaving me to stand alone in the light rain and dark.
He walked out of my sight.
Out of my heart.
Out of my life.

Music makes me cry
Music makes me laugh
Music makes me smile
Music makes me tingly
Deep inside
When i hear music
Life comes running after me
Music is the only reason
Why i can stand on earth
Music makes cry
Music makes me laugh
Music makes me smile
Music makes me tingly
Deep inside
Music brings me back to life
Music is the only reason i live
