Heart Broken

He says, “It’s over.”
She says, “Ok. Fine”
Not even thinking…
This could be their last time,
He says, “Goodbye.”
One last time,
And walks away,
Not even noticing the tears,
Forming in her eyes,
And slowly falling to the ground,
He keeps walking,
Without looking back,
And just like that… He’s gone,
She continues to count each step he takes,
While muttering to her self, “Come back.”
And just like that…
No sooner he walked in her life,
He walked out faster,
She told her self,
This is what life is really about,
Falling in love,
Getting attached,
Get your heart broken,
And having “the one” to walk out,
When you need them the most.
