Goodbye My Love
As I am packing my suitcase, getting ready to leave behind the love of my life, I feel arms wrap around my waist. I don’t give myself the chance to be enveloped by his warmth.
“Get away from me, Brad!” I bark.
“Please Trish, you don’t have to leave.” He says with tears forming in his eyes.
“Yes, I do. You made sure of that when you decided to cheat on me.”
He gets on his knees in a begging position and grabs my hands.
“I am so so sorry. I was drunk and I wasn’t thinking. It didn’t mean anything, you are the one I love, the one I want to spend the rest of my life with,” He wails.
“Well maybe you should have thought about that before you decided to sleep with another woman.”
I love him so much. This is the hardest thing I have ever had to do but I can’t forgive him. With a heavy heart, I get out of his grip and walks to the front door with my suitcase in hand.
“Goodbye Brad. I wish things could have been different,” I says tears after tears drop from my eyes.
“N...n...no. Please,” he chokes out.
I walk out out the door, glancing back at him one final time. I see the sadness in his eyes but it is too late. He hurt me too much.
I continue walking until I am out of his sight. The reality finally sinks in. I am never gonna see the man I love again.
