The night air is crisp and cool, moistened by my trickling tears. For; I'm alone with my fears, left waiting here like a fool. Her lies lured me here tonight, using her persuasive voice. And she left me little choice, I didn't want to start a fight. She used every trick she knew, starting off with sexy talk. And had me ignore the clock, hinting my dreams could come true. Anxiety-fueled thoughts run the gauntlet of my mind. For; she is not always kind, tying my heart into knots. I have a thirst I can't quench, and a belly full of pain. But, here I wait once again, sitting on a cold park bench. I spy the first flakes of snow, starting to tumble and fall. And there's little chance she'll call, so; I guess it's time to go.

Oh...what a sad ending. How can people be so cruel. I related to the belly full of pain so well, dear. Great write...even in its sorrow. Hugs

Definitely sad, one that many can relate to indeed. But as always, and like Miss Heidi said, a very well written piece :)

This is really sad Emile, I hope it is fictional.. A deep write, and one that needs to be read and heard..
