Numb.......

“Why did I let this happen….to me….to us……to what we had….?”
This was all she thought….

Her mind drifted back to the happier times spent together…


Those long phone calls….The endless hours spent talking about anything and everything under the sun…Those silly fights they’d had….Those sweet little surprises…The way they looked at each other….


Those times….

When hearing one name made her days forever…When everything inside her was beyond the measure of words…When there was perfection in all his imperfections…..
When she spoke without thinking….When he knew without hearing…..



She looks into the mirror now,and finds a stranger staring back at her..Someone she doesn’t recognize anymore...someone she knew a long time ago….

Why did it happen?-that’s all she asks…herself….
There’s no one else to ask….Noone to answer….
Does she regret it? Yes….she does…

She regrets falling for him…so badly… Regrets giving him all she had...Regrets crying for him for hours on end…Regrets letting herself undergo so much pain…Regrets expecting...
Regrets loving him…..With all she had….

She can’t go back…Moving ahead is proving to be equally difficult…She’s stuck…in the midst of memories and pain….wanting to let go…and fly far far away….
But the tears have dried,the feelings all drained off ,her heart all broken…

All that is around is numbness…..
