He left no footprints
In sand… no ripples in water …no image in mirrors……no foot prints on the
shore..
Just SHIFT DELETED her from his life
A weak watery moon
filtered through the clouds and revealed a young girl sitting on the topmost of
Thirteen stone steps that led into the water..she was very
still very wet..in a while rain slowed to a drizzle and then stopped the breeze
shook water from the trees and for a while it rained only under trees Where
shelter had once been….
It was past midnight…the
river had risen
Wet leaves in the trees shimmered..with moon’s light…
A liitle frightened of
what lurked in the shadows around her..As she lurched into the deep
water..
A brief sunbeam ..
A small life ..
Quietness and emptiness…
He had held her against him…she had woken to the beats of
his heart knocking against his chest
His arms around her she had felt protected..loved and
secured..he successfully folded her fears into rose
He had gathered her into the cave of his body
He had been careful not to hurt her
She could feel how soft she felt to him……..
Even now…when she was about to end her existence…
Even now when any moment she could be swept inside where she
would loose her living self…
She offered herself to the river…to be eaten by large
fishes…to be drowned…
To be no more alive!!
P.S-This is part of a series which I am working on..story of breaking of a heart..shattering of dreams...
