End of an Era

Alomst 2 whole years, such a short time yet, to high school kids it seemed like a life time. So many memories, those you cheerish and those you want to throw away in the trash can in the back of your brain. To everyone around us we had seemed so inlove and happy. We thought the same thing. We would become the high school sweethearts you would see in the movies. Yet, the movies are just that,a movie, they are fake. They don't mention the restless nights arguing over FaceTime or the built up tears from the emptiness after those silly arguments. They don't capture the pain that comes after the cheating. It all seemed too good to be true. The "I will never leave you" and the "I love You" must have been lies from him. Who would ever cheat on the one he claims to love and never leave? After almost 4 years now that pain that the movies never capture still haunt me to this day. Unfortunatley that pain and suffering has just damaged to the point of the idea of "love" being so fiction. Forgive and forget is a saying we tend to use. I can forgive to an extent but I will never be able to forget that my first love had never truly been a love.
