Fear

It was my fear that was my biggest weakness. Yes, fear. Fear of losing her. Fear of experiencing the same nightmares again. And it was my fear that had brought this upon us. But I was hopeless. After all I was a man in love, and I was to do everything to be with her, forever.

I wanted her with me all the time. But, she was bad. She did not realize how much I loved her. And that is why she wanted to leave the house to buy things, or to meet people. She did not love me enough like I loved her. And I could not keep letting that happen,could I?

And I lost it when I woke up at night to see her not lying beside me. My eyes searched around for any trace of her as fear took over me. Fear to have loosen her. But soon it got completely replaced by rage when I realized she wasn't here and I started to break,smash, destroy anything that I could reach for in the room.Stepping on the broken shreds of glasses shattered everywhere while painting the floor with red footsteps, I screamed out for her.

And I heard that voice, perplexed as to what was wrong with me, holding a glass of water in her hand. She walked towards me,slowly pulling me into her warm embrace. That is when I decided to feel that warmth forever, and my hand tightened it’s grip around the half broken glassware that I was holding.

My red footsteps slowly disappeared under the crimson warm liquid that soon painted the whole ground. And for the last time I heard her sweet voice calling my name with those trembling lips of her.

My fear was gone now.She doesn't leave me alone anymore. She always just lies on the bed beside me and I keep on looking at the pale her. But her body is cold.Though sometimes I miss the warmth of her body, but I love it. Afterall, she won't leave me anymore.
