Tears well up in her eyes
but she bites them back through gritted teeth,
as she watches him walk away.
He never looked back,
not even once.
He never saw her tear filled eyes.
She stands alone in utter silence.
No sound is made,
except for the breaking of her heart.
She doesn't know why.
She stands in the rain
looking down the road the way he left.
Why?...
She just doesn't understand.
Why did he leave her?
Fresh tears begin to form.
She bites them back again.
She won't cry,
not for him, not for anyone.
She tells herself crying is a sign of weakness and she can't afford to be weak...
