You can see the sadness in her eyes, the hurt that you caused with your lies. On some days, she looks so fragile that it seems she’ll break if the wind blows the wrong way. She appears to be worse with each coming day, spiraling into the darkness, reaching out for a hand no longer there. Grasping at nothingness, free-falling into a dark abyss. She closes her eyes, and you’re all that she sees, remembering your smile one more time.
