Walked Away

The last time I walked away, I did it without ever looking back again.

It was the hardest thing to do for me, a big and life-altering decision I had to make for the first time. But I was done with all the heartaches and your shenanigans. So, I walked away, regretting the wasted times spent with you.

The first time we met, you were a totally different person, the kindest, humble, and warmest individual, whom I wanted to be around on this planet. However, I am not sure what turned you into this horrible human being, who suddenly became arrogant, careless, and self-absorbed.

You just turned into this person I didn’t even know, a self-centered prick that was walking around without a soul. 

Overnight, one day, you woke up on the wrong side of the bed and lost your innocence. Then, I guess the only person closer to you was me, so, you decided to push me to the edges, to the point I honestly despised ever seeing your face or calling your name again.

I became too fragile to be at your company, so I had found my way out of your life to completely erase what we’d had and avoided you forever by any cost.

What’s more heartbreaking is not knowing the reasons behind your absurd behaviors. Not knowing the changes in your color like four seasons is still nagging me until this day.

In the beginning, everything was smooth and I loved loving such a beautiful soul. Your smile was vibrant and intoxicating. You were outgoing, adventurous, and fearless. You had such a loving heart and most of all was a gentle and caring person. You were fun to be around, intelligent, beautiful, and open-minded. 

I can truly confess that you cared for me more than I did. 

What happened to you? Why did you turn to this bad and dispirited person?

What kind of poison did you drink?

Today, you’ve made me think that loving you was worse than I could imagine. Yet, I won’t ever wish your heart to break like mine. I only hoped if I knew why yours became so cold like ice and made me walk away from us without even saying goodbye with the last kiss on your soft and honeydew lips.

a self-centered prick ... never knew you to write this strongly before @MidnightInk ... but, hey! Better to find out what she was like before any talk of a honeymoon took place, imagine the hell you might have went through then ... and this is a different way of getting out of bed I have to admit though I don't think you meant to word it this way ... "one day, you walked up on the wrong side of the bed..." good story though, enjoyed it ... 8=)

@MidnightInk Poignant, to say the least. Excellent job capturing the heartbreak when someone you thought you knew changes, or perhaps reveals a hitherto unknown side of themselves. Bravo!
