An Excerpt From a Love Story I Am Too Lazy To Write

an exerpt from a love story I am too lazy to write She found him outside her small flat he was in the bloom of the old lamplight. she noticed the grey flecks in his beautiful eyes. Hi! he whispered softly like honey falling from a spoon. She flashed her prettiest smile And tossed her hair back like she used to. You look as beautiful as I remember. She looked at him for some small signal of remorse but she could not see it. He wanted her she felt his need even in the cold night air. There’s a hole in my existence he said. His mouth almost smiling. The smile that had her undress for him a thousand times. Why me? I was never enough before she retorted. Wanting to hurt him as badly as he had hurt her. I did not know I loved you until you were not there he said. A sadness glowed in his eyes. And if you remember it was you that left me. Why did you leave? He asked Because you never asked me to stay she said quietly. I am asking now he answered. She let him into her flat They undressed and made love. When she awoke she heard the click of her door as he left her. She knew her heart would ache Just as it had before. And she knew he would be back again. And she would let him in once more.
