The Door

It's over, it's done and the time has  come. You said goodbye and closed the door on me on us. I stand here looking at the closed door. I can't believe this is happening. I knock and knock and keep knocking praying the door opens. My heart hurts, it's going to explode. The pain is unbearable, I'm frantically knocking now still no answer. Reality hits he'll never open the door. My heart breaks I'm officially broken. Suddenly I can't knock anymore I can't feel anymore I can't love anymore. Not only did he close the door on us but for me he closed the door on love

This is a stark reality. One that I know well. Awesome.

Hi Alicia... this is such a very good write.. Your words paint a very visual as well as heartfelt message of your loss / feelings to the situation. All the very best DAMO x
