Your Lies, My Tears

Your Lies, My Tears by Melody Pabz

      I decided to walk away. I closed the door of our conversations and kept it closed. I decided to see what life would be like without you. I was hit with waves of loneliness because I realized that it was you whom I missed.

   I was reluctant to say goodbye because I was deeply in love with you but I was very tired. It was time for me to leave you. Our strange shared time had come to an end. Our conversations ended in lies and tears - your lies, my tears.

     I examined my heart and I found myself thinking about you. There could probably be nothing more painful for me than to endure this sort of loneliness…

Shadow of the Past

Shadow of the Past by Melody Pabz 

     I spent my finest hours observing the harmonics of the planetary dance. The Earth moved through its summer journey. The moon was dimmed by the cloud. I saw a star fading at the horizon and I remembered a person who changed my way of life, the man to whom I silently given my heart. This opened a hole in my universe. My heart seemed to stop for a moment. Then, tears were rising to my eyes like mercury in a thermometer. Sadness rose up like smoke out of my ruined heart. It seemed his shadow remained at my side though he was far away from me…

     I was a pretender. I pretended that I don’t love him. I experienced the pain of sitting down with him and telling him that I was in love with someone else. I preferrred to keep my emotions. I’d let myself become carried away by the game of pretense.
