Mmeso Inspires: Life Without You

Life without you, is insipid, just like a soup without a salt.

I tried so hard to move on, but it was difficult.

Couldn’t believe that you will ever hurt me…

After those years of bonding and trusting.

You are the air that I breath, Harry

And the angel in my world..

What happened to us?

Life without you, is darker than midnight…

Trying so hard to be strong but my strength has failed me.

Trying so hard to see a flick of light in this tunnel…

But I can’t.

Here I am, groping my way into the darkness of solitude where you had left me, a broken angel.

What happened to us?

Life without you, is harder than I thought, Harry.

What happened to your promises?

Just like a flash, they quickly vanished because you never loved me.

You said you will stay with me forever, but you left immediately, Sandra came into the picture.

Countless offers I had rejected because of you…

Countless proposals I had ignored because I felt your love was greater…

Alas, I was wrong.

What happened to us?

Life without you appears empty, just like a ghost town.

Trying so hard to smile, amidst the pain that  gnaws at my soul…

You said you will travel the world with me…

You said you will adore me all the days of your life…

But so soon, your promises crashed to the ground raising dust to my eyes…

What happened to us?

Life without you, Harry, is better than I envisaged.

I miss those moments we spent together, but I am stronger now.

You threw me to the wolves, but I returned leading the packs, can’t you see?

Those moments of solitude and weeping is over because I am in love…

Yes, I am in love with the queen I am becoming and the king in my castle.

You thought I will not survive alone…

Alas, you were wrong.

Nothing happened to me.
