Forever Lost
The young woman.
Broken and lost.
Pathetic.
Relying on love to live.
The young man.
Guilty.
“It’s not my fault!” He screams to the sky.
She’s gone. Flatlined.
Trapped in darkness.
Tears run down his face.
He holds her limp form close.
Her skin. Cold.
Drip. Drip. Drip.
His tears fall.
He wipes them from her face.
White as porcelain.
Lips press lightly against her cheek.
Memories flow.
“Did I do this to you?” He whispers.
Silence, as though waiting for a reply.
None came.
Crimson blood stains their clothes.
He carries her to the roses.
Places her on the ground.
One last tear.
One last kiss.
One last I love you.
He walks away slowly.
There lies the body of his best friend.
Lost forever.
