Forsaken

Love bites at the heart, bursting past all defenses. You see it in a smile, a glance, a look that makes your stomach lurch. A sentence that stops your heart. You hear it in the whisper of her words, the warmth of her breath on your cheek lingering in the night. A brief memory of her touch sends shivers down your spine, the taste of her lips and the feel of her close to you. Of all things in this world; None do you require more than the resplendence of her, the brilliance of her soul. And yet, she left tonight for good; Another stole her heart. One last night of passion before her departure, leaving you hollow and alone; Forsaken.
