Wait for Me

Views (101) Tragedy Created on 6-3-08 Flag

she sits by herself

on a bench 

under a dim streelamp

just watching the rushing people go by

she looks like she is waiting for something

to be more precise

she is waiting for someone

his name is David

she had met him yesterday

right here at this very spot

they had spoken for awhile, and he spoke like he cared

like he understood

they had promised each other to meet at the same place

at noon

and well she kept her promise...but he didn't

when she got there

she had found a letter...

she caught it before it flew it away

it read...

"Dear Isabel,

    I enjoyed our conversation yesterday. You seem like a nice person, it's just that i don't i am ready for this yet...I didn't want to come because i was afraid to make a commitment...i didn't want to make another promise that i could never keep...I am sorry...it's not you...it's me."

...there is nothing but silence...

...she feels nothing but regret...

and then her emotions take over

"why?!" she cries

"how was i so blind...how did i not see?!

Why did i fall so fast into love?

Why did i let myself?...

Why...WHY?!?!"

the question goes over and over in her head...

she falls into despair...

she turns the letter around...

she writes

"I loved you...was that not enough?"

she pulls out a gun...

she cries for a moment...

lets her tears  stain the paper...

she yells out his name...

the pulls the trigger...

everything stop...

people turn their head...

someone pushes through the crowd

a handsome young man,

he runs to the bench

takes Isabel's limp hand...

he looks at her eyes...

which are red and glassy...from her fallen tears

he pulls her close,

holds her tight

her blood stains his shirt but he doesn't mind

that one single gun shot

brought him back to her side

he picks up the letter

looks at her once more

he whispers in her ear...

"you did not unfold the letter all the way"

so he does it for her...

and he reads the words aloud to her soul which lingers...

"But I love you Isabel, I won't be here right on time...but if you love me too...i know you will wait"

                         Love,

                            David
