THE MISERABLE LOVER

(A short story)

It was a situation as old as time,..
I was pining for this special someone and years matched on like a beating heart, I couldn't bring myself to let him in on how I felt,i watched and loved him from a distance,.. He didn't even know that I existed,.seeing him with other girls was a horrifying experience that always leaves emotional scars that might never completely heal,..I cried in my closet and even went as far as making him a prayer point,.I never stopped believing and hoping that one day we could be together,.

And one day my prayers were answered, I was invited for a wedding 👰 by a friend 🐶 and he was a guest as well, my heart was beating 💓 so fast,.it was like I was about to have a heart attack 👊, of course he didn't even notice me, after the wedding I still couldn't bring myself to walk up to him, so I just watched him leave, after he left, suddenly the atmosphere wasn't so pleasurable anymore,.
As I was coming down the stairs to leave,  someone bumped into me so hard that I staggered backwards, but the face I saw as I looked up was the most marvelous sight,.I still can't explain that feeling, it was him,.my crush for 3years,.we exchanged contacts after long talks and apologies, the following days sparked off like a shooting star ✨ in the sky 🌈 luckily he wasn't in any r/ship, the moon suddenly became so mysterious and romantic  we went out a couple of times and bonded so easily, I have never been so sure of anything before like I was in the moments with him, I could swear I see love in his eyes when I look at him,. Until I made the greatest mistake of my life by telling him how I felt, suddenly everything changed, he started distancing himself, stopped texting and calling,I never wanted him unhappy and I thought he wanted same for me, so I stayed away 🏃 for a while hoping he'll come around. after about a month of silence we bumped into each other again at the mall 🏬 and he was with another girl, we exchanged pleasantries and went away,  he called later and said he was sorry about how things turned out,. He wanted me as just a friend, someone he can call and hangout with when he's lonely and bored and i  took things too seriously.....

Its almost 6months now  and it has never stopped hurting for a minute,.. Whenever I think about it, even breathing hurts, so I just hold my breath to stay alive,.. The moon also looks different now,  its not as mysterious or romantic as before

My heart 💞 has long searched for a place 🕋 to nest
But the memories wouldn't let my heart rest
