The Day I Heard The Truth

 I sit there on the bus,

I feel the cold breeze come form a cracked open window.

I sit there, 

and hear her say,

the most worst words any person would want to hear, 

after what had happened.

" Courtney, I blame you for Liz's death..."

That is what she said.

At that moment i suddenly felt,

there really was nothing that could turn my day around.

I already knew it was my fault,

but she obviously had to put, 

her two sense into it.

I feel my eyes start to water, 

as I try to hold back, 

the flood of tears that I knew would be coming anytime now.

I look at her in disgust. 

She sees my painful face and laughs.

My heart,

I feel it aching and breaking,

breaking into all kinds of little pieces.

Like she is just laughing and stepping on the pieces,

not even caring where the pieces landed.

I realized, though,

that right then someone had actually told me,

the same thing I've been thinking this whole time.

That it was my fault.

She didn't say, along with everyone else,

that i was not to blame.

That was the very day,

that I heard the truth from not just myself,

but someone else too...

OOO! That is horrible to blame someone for their death!
I've prayed to make the pains stop for a loved one of mine
Three days later he died and I felt so guilty.
This is very well expressed expressed. Such an emotional write.

Harsh, but sometimes that is exactly what the truth is.
