Shattered

Fear melted my insides as I watched the car pull away. My unease grew to terror as the feeling of emptiness gripped my heart and soul. He was gone along with his angry words and selfish denial.

I was alone. 

My terrified brain tried to process the confusing messages my heart and mind were sending. I shuddered and sobbed as the crunch of tires on rocks melted away. So great was my pain and fear my knees touched the ground the rough rocks bruising my skin. There I knelt. 

Alone. 

He was gone.
