Deeply Broken

The torture was meant to break her, but it was the truth that made her heart bleed.

She left this world believing she wasn't my everything.

It's the thought that replays in my head as I stare at the image of the life gone from her body, her tangled brown hair fanning around her face as it hangs, listless. I didn't get to tell her that I didn't knowingly betray her before she was killed. That I still loved her. Now she'll never know, and the whispered words on her last breath will never belong to me, but the man she grew to love in my place.

He teeters on his knees next to me. Inconsolable.

Both of us are in pieces on the floor. And the only thing that keeps us from completely crumbling is the promise of finding her killer and making him pay.
