I’m already breaking down. Tonight is going to be hard. It’s like I’m being stabbed in the heart by a heating iron. I type this in the brief moment that I can breathe. I suppose it’s not helping that I have her picture up and I’m tracing her face with my finger. I cannot stop the tears as I think of her.
I don’t want to be. I want to crawl into a hole and just quit. I cannot stop thinking about her. I, of course, can’t stop thinking about what happened - I’m not even sure what happened which makes it so much worse. Where did things go so fucking wrong? How do I mess up something so perfect? She’s perfect. Maybe that’s the problem, I don’t deserve her I guess. I love her so much. This pain isn’t receding. She’s going to be gone for a while so the pain has only begun. How did I scare her off? I wish I could turn back the hands of time. I only have myself to blame. I damn myself to this personal hell.
I have my favorite picture up on my desktop. It’s black and white. She has the biggest smile ever – the most perfect smile. Even more special, the smile is for me. I’ll never forget the reason for the smile. That’s when I made a promise – one that I signed every email off with. Now I don’t know if I can ever fulfill that promise. I also made a promise to myself to be the best possible man/boyfriend to her and I utterly failed. I guess that’s why I hate myself so much. I failed her. That picture is… I can’t even begin to describe the beauty of her. She’s so special. I’m going to go crawl back down in my hole now.
I want to rip out what’s left of my soul and just let it be devoured. Ha, I chuckled on that. A bit melodramatic, right? I needed that. Sadly enough it’s still true. Oy.
