Little Words

"I had feelings for her" Those five little words that in any other sentence would have had any other meaning but together hurt me deeper than any wound. Those five little words that were a wrecking ball and my life was the condemned building. Those five words that made me feel like a weed trampled in a meadow filled with flowers. "But it meant nothing." Those four little words that felt like a punch to the stomach. Knocking all the air out of my lungs and leaving me to feel like I was suffocating. "I chose you" Those three little words that shattered my heart because at one point you made me an option and her your choice. "I'm sorry" Those two little words that lost all meaning. One sentence filled with eighteen little letters that made up five little words caused my world to crumble and fall.
