Late Night Walk

I feel the need to take a walk, On this empty street in the dark. I need to cool my head and think this over, It's like I carry the word on my shoulder. With the wedding cancelled, After what tonight has happened. I finally regained my long lost freedom, As I escaped from a true demon. Emotions are running high But somehow I feel like I could fly. I was about make my life's biggest mistake I won't allow him anymore to take. I was walking lost in my thought, When in the distance someone I spot. Oh no! Why now? Why him? All I want to do is run and scream. He can tell that something is wrong, He has known me for way too long. How could I tell the man I love, That I was hit by the one with whom I was?! Even if he doesn't love me, he's still my friend, He would never allow this to have a peaceful end. I also know him all to well, He might kill that awful man. In the end, all I could say, or rather ask, Is to hug me while I put on a mask. In that moment, on the empty street, His heartfelt hug was so bittersweet.
