One Rainy Day

Outside, it's gloomy. The sky is dark with the promise of an impending storm. The wind is starting to gather strength. It's so quiet except for the creaking sound on the windowpane as the wind tries to force its way inside the room. I walk to the window. I put down my mug of hot chocolate and pull blinds all the way up. Then I check the lock to make sure the panes are tightly shut.
I divert my attention to the TV. Damn that dish! The reception is so bad I can't make out anything on the tube.
I should have listened when she told me to switch to cable.
I turn it off and look out again. I tried to keep my thought from going to her but obviously it's not going to happen today. I miss her so bad. How long has it been since we've broken up? Has it been a month? More?
This room that used to be filled with her laughter is now so empty. It's as if she was never here at all. I feel so cold and so alone.
The rain starts to fall. On any other given day I would welcome the downpour. It would be a good excuse to sit by the window and cuddle. Now that she's gone, the rain makes the pain even worse.
I have never known so much heartache.
It's like she took her hand to my heart and squeezed it really hard. I feel so hollow and so devoid of anything. Anguish consumes me.
How can something so good be so wrong? She was the essence of my life, the core of my being.
I watched the wave crash angrily on the rock. I wonder what it feels like to be that rock. I wonder if I'll feel any pain.
^how sad..
