Hands clammy
Heart beating wildly
I knew this was coming
Hope you would have  changed your mind
Now I don't know what to think
I watch your lips as you speak those words
My heart is racing
Tears stinging
'Why?'
The world floats between us
'Why?'
Your answer is simple
'Right thing for me'
Stomach whirling
Heart squeezing
Feels like the world is falling
I don't want to hear it anymore
Nerves rack my stomach
Hands caress my back
Your warmth
your smell
encloses me
I relax against your warm body
'Shh it's going to be okay'
You whisper in my ear
Trusting you fully as I have before
'I might have joined the military and be sent over but i'll always be with you'
And for some reason those words brought comfort
I knew you'd always be with me no matter what.

 

 

 

Author's Note

I feel like it just dragged on.
I will most likely redo it but i had to place it down

It is heartfelt, but the flow is choppy. Overall, I like it.
