I love you.
Three words. That's all, just three. You would think they'd be the easiest words to say to the person you felt that way for, but for some reason there not.
I stand staring out the window. I don't really see anything I just can't turn around and look at you. I can hear the dresser drawers opening and closing as you remove your clothes. I can hear you close the suitcase, and yet I stare out the window.
I know I should turn around and say the words you want to hear, need to hear, hell deserve to hear, but I can't say them.
I can feel you looking at me. I try to turn around and look at you but my body isn't cooperating with what my heart is screaming.
I hear you sigh and then hear as you lift the suitcase off the bed. You walk to the door and stop and I know you've turned and looked at me once more and yet I still stare out the window.
"Good bye Alex"
Then you walk away.
I hear the door slam and I finally turn around. I can feel the emptiness already.
Your last words echo inside my head.
"Good bye Alex"
Three words that are hard to say. Three words that are torture to hear.
"I love you"
I say to the empty air.
Three words that came too late.
