The Pain of a Broken Heart

She broke away with swollen eyes, tears from her heart, for she became her worst friend, her worst dream, the one thing she disliked the most. She broke in front of my eyes and I could do nothing but watch the woman I love break down in a pitiful moment. She looked at me as to find a consuming answer in my eyes that had only fear. The feeling of hopelessness was daunting. I could do nothing but walk away. This was not my happiness but it was my love that I embraced in every difficult moment. I can’t promise to be there all the time, so I turn my back and walk away knowing that I will always cry and never know the truth, but only know that I love you.

This is very saddening and shows the frailty of heartbreak in all its darkness!
