He wiped a single tear that
accidently fell from my crystal blue eye. I kept looking down,
motionless.
Trying to make no expression, what so ever. I felt his soft
fingers under my chin.
He lifted them with a quiet force. I can't look up. I can't see
his face.
I can't see the sparkly, glistening eyes starring back at mine. I
won't do it. I can't. I did.
His blue ocean eyes stared into mine, far into mine.
The vision of his face started to blur when more tears came.
I turned my body and faced the other direction, looking
into the water.
In the middle of the Bahamas, the ocean, our little row boat
sat.
I locked my sight into the clear water. Fish of all different
colors moved peacefully underneath.
I feel absolutley stupid. I feel dumb. I have so many regrets,
but this one is my biggest.
I sit and stare at the water while I try to control my
crying.
The tears finally stopped after what seemed to be
forever.
I hear him sigh and I try listening closely. I
could hear his steady breathing.
I could almost feel his heart beat.
"So I met this girl. About 2 years ago I believe. This girl
changed my life. Not for the bad, but for the good. She actually
made me happy. She put a real smile on my face, every time I saw
her. She's changed now, she says she wants to leave me. No not
for another guy, because she isn't like that. I know she loved me
but she still confesses she doesn't want to be together. This
girl broke my heart. But needless to say, I'm down right in love
with this girl still, and I always will be. Did you know she has
the same name as you?"
I turn around slowly, back to face him, still looking at the
water.
He continues, "same hair..same face..same voice..same smile"
That's when I look at him. Straight in the
eye. "Same beautiful
self."
