Rain and other snifflies

Recommend

It was around midsummer when the pain got too much.

I didn't want to watch him with Ebony. It was too much pain. Too much. I love him. I do. But he belongs to someone else.

I sit on the cliff edge, tracing each rain drop fall. Trying is easy. But it's doing it successfully that counts. At least I can Imagine.

He slowly starts to appear. His mouse brown floppy fringe, the emerald gleam in his eyes. His laugh, that you can't describe. He tells me everything I want to hear, my imaginary friend. Hope.

'Lili.' My imaginary friend says. His voice sounds harsher and louder than when he speaks in my head. He never says much to me in real life. The voice always comes back when I think of that. You can't go on imagining, Lilian.

'Why are you standing here, it's cold for July.' He shudders. 'Are you ok?'

Wierd ideas sprang in  my head. Be rude, get him to go away. He's the one who wrecked your life. If he never existed, neither would the pain. You know it makes sense.

'Just leave me ALONE. GO AWAY. THIS IS YOUR FAULT!' As soon as the words fly out my mouth I want to take them back. If he never existed, neither would the pain.

He leaves.

I sit on the cliff edge, tracing each rain drop fall. Trying is easy. But it's doing it successfully that counts. And I can't do it.

I step of the cliff edge, falling with the rain.
