His Tears, My Freedom (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)
As if I’m something that can be unremembered.
I draw in a shaky breath, wipe my face, and push myself up.
I don’t know where I’m going. I just start walking. The house feels too tight. Too cold. My heart aches too much to stay.
They all say the same thing in the end—love, forever, stay with me. But they all leave. They all shatter me.
I walk into the night.
The streets are quiet. A breeze brushes against my skin, but I don’t feel it. Inside me, something burns. My chest, my eyes, my soul. Like my whole existence is written to never know peace. Never know what it means to be truly wanted.
