A Bloody Sea

Across the cool, blue ocean, a love will wait, but maybe not. Two halves that make a whole, impossibly perfect, or so they thought. For she found another half that fits like they were made to be together. But the deserted half still whispers, "I'm yours", as the tears fall. Broken. Cracked. Fragile. Never to be whole again. And as she thinks about who she left, She regrets it, because the sea calls to her, lamenting her choice and speaking of his broken heart. She goes to the water and stands waist deep. The sea shows her his agony, and it makes her heart bleed, soon she will breathe her last. Blood dripping into the sea to fix his shattered being. Drop by drop he will be renewed, but she must cease to exist. Blood falling into the sea until the last drop has left her body. Her reward for breaking him, is breaking herself.
