Heartbreak Queen

“She’s going to sit alone. Right at that same table where she built it all. Her happiness, her courage, her perseverance, but most importantly, where she met all of her friends. Now it’s all crumbling down to her fingertips. She closes her eyes and tries to dream herself away into a reality where all of that still exsists, but she can’t. It’s all blank without the real thing… Without the real them. Complete nothingness. She can’t even remember their voices. Everything is fading away from her. And everytime, she blames herself for something that she couldn’t control. They’ve all left now; her friends. The girl lifts her head and stares at them. They’re all happy. They all prance around, discussing random topics she used to talk about with them all of the time. She even sees her crush holding hands with her best friend. They don’t even notice her. All of them go sit at their new table, completely forgetting about what once was. She weakly smiled as tears fell down her cheeks. Her heart ached for them. For someone. But she had no one. She put her head back down and waited for an escape. She pulled her sketchbook and poetry journal closer to her. They may only be objects, but they are all she has now. She pours her heart out crying. She couldn’t hold it in any longer. Her fears were reality, and she somehow had to stay strong in this. But how could she stay strong when she wasn’t going to be remembered by any of them? Was it all pointless to make memories in the first place? She just wanted to disappear. She then heard whispers all around her. It sounded like her friends, but that couldn’t be. She lifted her head up and rubbed her eyes. A boy with a pretend smile and a sympathetic gaze pulled me into a hug.
