Chrysanthemum
She lay there, in the stillness of her bedroom, clutching onto her pillow like a lifeline. The tears had left tracks on her cheeks, and her eyes were red and swollen from the weight of her emotions. She tried to steady her breaths, but the sobs continued to shake her small frame.
The overwhelming feelings of loneliness, emptiness, and sadness had consumed her, threatening to suffocate her with their intensity. The wind outside howled mournfully, as if echoing her pain and longing for comfort.
But no amount of wind could soothe the ache in her heart. Everywhere she looked, she was reminded of him. The memories and images of their time together haunted her, and she couldn't escape the piercing ache in her chest.
She tried to distract herself by focusing on her surroundings, but it seemed as if he was everywhere. When she looked in the mirror, his reflection seemed to stare back at her with his pretty face, his twinkling eyes filled with passion and longing for her. She could almost feel the warmth of his body as he held her in his arms, his breath hot against her neck.
Even when she closed her eyes, she could see him clearly. She could hear the sound of his laughter, the feel of his hand in hers, and the sound of his voice whispering sweet nothings in her ear.
The closed door across from her taunted her with the possibility that he might be waiting for her on the other side. She longed to open it and find him there, but she knew deep down that it was just wishful thinking.
So she lay there, wrapped in her own sorrow, holding onto her pillow as if it was him. The wind continued to whisper mournfully outside, as if begging her to let it in and comfort her. But she knew that nothing could fill the void that he had left behind.
--
Every night, as she lay down on her bed, her mind wandered towards him, and he appeared beside her like a dream. His touch sent shivers down her spine, electrifying every nerve in her body. She yearned for his warm embrace and missed the cuddle times they spent together, feeling closer to each other. As they snuggled, they could feel each other's breath and heartbeat in unison, as though they were one.
The emptiness of her life without him had left her physically alive but emotionally dead. She couldn't bear to go on like this, and the thought of never feeling his touch again made her heart ache. The tears flowed like the raindrops on the roof, as if the weather was colliding with her emotions, and the storm within her raged on endlessly.
But even as she cried, her heart held on to the hope that one day he would return, and they would be reunited. She clung to the memories of their love, the warmth of his touch, and the feeling of being in his arms. Those memories sustained her through the long nights, and she prayed that one day they would be together again, to cuddle, to feel each other's heartbeat, and to be close once more.
As she sat there on her windowsill, gazing out into the darkness of the night, she couldn't help but feel the deep sense of loneliness that consumed her. The cold air seeped through the small cracks of her window, sending shivers down her spine. She pulled her blanket tighter around her body, hoping to find some solace in the warmth it provided.
But it wasn't just the cold that made her feel lonely; it was the emptiness inside her. The void that was left behind when he walked out of her life, leaving nothing but memories and a heart full of pain. It had been a long time since he had left, and yet, she still couldn't shake off the feeling that he might come back.
But she knew better. Deep down, she knew that he had moved on, that he had forgotten about her. And that thought, the thought of being forgotten, was slowly killing her. She couldn't bear the idea that someone who was once such an integral part of her life could just forget about her like she never existed.
It was then that she realized she needed to wake up from this daydream, this false hope that he would one day return. She needed to accept the harsh reality that he was never coming back, that he was gone for good. It was a painful truth, one that she had been avoiding for far too long.
With a heavy heart, she took a deep breath and made a promise to herself - a promise to move on and live her life without him. It wouldn't be easy, she knew, but it was the only way forward. She needed to learn to be alone, to find happiness within herself, without depending on anyone else.
And so, she started the journey of healing. It was a slow and painful process, but every step she took towards self-discovery and acceptance brought her closer to finding inner peace. She found solace in the small things in life - a good book, a warm cup of tea, a walk in the park. And with each passing day, she learned to live without him, to find joy in her own company.
--
It was a lonely night, a cold, lonely night. But she was no longer afraid of the loneliness. She had learned to embrace it, to use it as a tool for self-reflection and growth. And she knew that as long as she had herself, she would never truly be alone again.
Trix felt a wave of mixed emotions as she read her own words. She remembered the hurt, the pain, and the anger that she felt when Vincent ended their relationship. She also recalled the moments when she tried to move on, to let go of the memories that they shared together. But somehow, it seemed that no matter what she did, she couldn't escape the shadows of their past.
Trix wondered what it was about their relationship that made it so hard for her to move on. Was it the intense passion and love they once shared? Was it the betrayal and heartbreak she felt when Vincent left her? Or was it simply the fact that she was afraid to face the unknown future without him by her side?
As she pondered these thoughts, she couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with a sense of sadness and longing. She missed Vincent, his touch, his laughter, and his love. But she also knew that it was time to let go and move on with her life.
Trix took a deep breath and closed her diary, feeling a sense of closure wash over her. She knew that it wouldn't be easy, but she was determined to start anew. She looked out of her window, taking in the beauty of the sun setting on the horizon, and smiled for the first time in what seemed like an eternity.
She knew that she had a long road ahead of her, but she also knew that she was strong enough to face it. With each passing day, Trix made a conscious effort to focus on the present moment and to find joy in the little things in life. She surrounded herself with positive people and experiences, and slowly but surely, she began to heal.
Trix learned that moving on wasn't about forgetting the past or erasing the memories. It was about acknowledging the pain, accepting the past, and choosing to live in the present. She realized that the future held endless possibilities and that she was free to create her own destiny.
As she drifted off to sleep that night, Trix whispered a silent prayer of gratitude. She was thankful for the lessons learned, the memories shared, and the strength to move on. She knew that the road ahead would be bumpy, but she was ready to face it head-on. Trix closed her eyes with a newfound sense of peace and contentment, ready to embrace whatever the future had in store for her.

11th of August
Why do you have to leave
Without even saying goodbye?
My heart is going to explode
As I don't understand why
I've tried my best
Yet you turn your back
If the love fades away,
Could you have at least tried to stay?
Could you have at least told me?
Even how much it hurts,
I would willingly accept.
When you hold my hand
I did the same
With hope, you and I will work out
But why'd u suddenly let go?
Why'd it have to end up so sudden?
Like stardust, you've gone forever.
Now I'm curled up sobbing
Maybe everything happened for a reason,
I might not know it now,
But I hope one day I will.
- Trixie Lee Beanne Lopez
11th of August was a day that I will never forget. It was the day when my heart shattered into a million pieces, and my world turned upside down. It was the day when you left me without even saying goodbye.
I remember feeling so confused and lost, not understanding why you had to go. I had given you my all, tried my best to make you happy, but still, you turned your back on me. My heart was filled with so much pain and sadness that it felt like it was going to explode.
If the love had faded away, I wished that you had at least tried to stay. I wish that you had told me, no matter how much it would hurt, I would have willingly accepted it. But you didn't, and now I'm left with so many questions and so much pain.
When you held my hand, I thought we were in it together. I held on to the hope that you and I would work out, that we would overcome any obstacle that came our way. But why did you suddenly let go? Why did it have to end so suddenly, like stardust that disappears in the night sky?
Now, I'm curled up sobbing, trying to make sense of everything. Maybe everything happened for a reason, maybe it was a blessing in disguise, but I might not know it now. I hope that one day, I will find the answers to all my questions and the strength to move on.

Trix lay in bed, staring at the crumpled page in her hand. It was a letter from Vincent, the man she had loved deeply and devotedly. As she read it, her heart shattered into a million pieces, and all she could do was sob. How could he do this to her? How could he leave her without a word? How could he break her heart so callously?
With trembling hands, Trix ripped out the page from the notebook and threw it across the room. She could feel the anger and bitterness coursing through her veins. "I should hate you, right, Vincent?!" she murmured through gritted teeth. "But dammit! How foolish I am to believe you will come back. How stupid I am to believe that you still love me, that you will think of me."
Trix's tears flowed freely as she lay on her bed, surrounded by the remnants of her shattered dreams. "I wish I could just cut my heart and throw it away. It's useless," she whispered to herself. She could feel the pain of her broken heart, a dull ache that seemed to throb with every beat.
As the rain outside continued to pour, Trix tried to compose herself. "I hope this will be the last!" she said, wiping her tears and slapping her face gently. "Please, Trix, pull yourself together!" But it was too much, and she fell back onto the bed, overcome with emotion.
With not enough strength left in her body, Trix closed her eyes and let herself drift off to sleep. She could still feel the tears falling down her cheeks, like the raindrops that still pelted against her window. She didn't know what the future held, but for now, she allowed herself to rest, to grieve, and to hope that one day, her heart would heal.
--
Trix's heart had been shattered into a million pieces, and it seemed like she would never be able to put them back together again. It had been three long and agonizing years since her break-up with Vincent, yet the pain and hurt lingered on like an unwelcome guest that refused to leave. It was as if time had stood still for her, and the events of that fateful day felt like they had just occurred yesterday.
The scars from the past were so deep that Trix felt like she was trapped in a never-ending cycle of pain and heartbreak. No matter how hard she tried, it felt like the wounds just wouldn't heal. The pain was like a needle piercing through her heart, an excruciating sensation that made her want to end it all.
Trix knew she needed closure to move on, but it seemed like an elusive concept that was out of her reach. She didn't understand why Vincent had left her, and it was driving her insane. She longed for an explanation, a reason why he had walked out of her life so abruptly. It was only fair that she deserved to know, so she could make sense of everything and try to come to terms with it.
She often found herself questioning if she had done something wrong, said something that had caused Vincent to leave her. Had she missed any signs that he was unhappy? She wished she could go back in time and do things differently, but it was too late now.
The truth was, Trix was desperate for answers. She needed to know what she could do to make things work, to fix the relationship that was once so beautiful. Maybe it was too late, and there was nothing she could do to change the past, but she had to try. She had to know if there was any chance of reconciliation or if she should finally let go and move on.
Closure was something Trix desperately needed, as it was the only way she could continue living a full and meaningful life. She knew she had to face her fears and confront the painful memories head-on if she wanted to find inner peace and happiness. It wouldn't be easy, but she was determined to do whatever it took to find closure and finally move on from this tragic past.
--
"I'm sorry, Trix, but I can no longer continue this relationship. Let's end it up here!"
These words that came out of his lips are the most painful words she has ever heard in her entire life. These words tore her world apart.
"But why, Babe? Where did I go wrong? Please give me a chance to correct whatever I've done wrong. I require you. Please don't do this to me. You can't do this to me." though shuddering, she loudly speaks these words.
Vincent turned his broad back to her, leaving no answer. She wanted to run after him, hug him tight, and beg him to stay. But her legs trembled and weakened, so she does not have any strength to take even a single step.
Her sight began to get blurry, and the last thing she remembered was his image slowly fading away.
Trix stood there in disbelief, her heart feeling as if it was shattering into a million pieces. She had never imagined that Vincent would break her heart so cruelly. They had been together for two years, and she had thought that they were going to last forever. But now, all of her hopes and dreams had been shattered in an instant.
She could feel her eyes getting teary as she looked at Vincent's retreating figure. Her mind was racing, trying to figure out what had gone wrong. Had she done something to upset him? Was he seeing someone else? She desperately wanted answers, but Vincent was not willing to give them to her.
As he walked away, Trix's legs felt like jelly, and she could barely stand. She wanted to run after him and beg him to reconsider, but she knew that it would be futile. Vincent had made up his mind, and nothing she said or did would change it.
Trix's mind was consumed with thoughts of what her life would be like without Vincent. She couldn't imagine waking up every day without him by her side, or going through life's ups and downs without his support. The thought of losing him was too much to bear, and she felt like she was drowning in a sea of sadness and despair.
As Vincent disappeared from view, Trix's vision started to get blurry, and she collapsed to the ground. Her body was wracked with sobs, and she couldn't stop crying. It felt like her world had come to an end, and she didn't know how she was going to pick up the pieces and move on.
The pain of heartbreak was something that Trix had never experienced before, and she didn't know how to cope with it. She wanted to reach out to someone, anyone, who could help her make sense of what had happened. But she felt like she was all alone in the world, with no one to turn to.
As she lay there, crying and broken, Trix knew that her life would never be the same again. She had lost the person she loved most in the world, and she didn't know if she would ever be able to love again. The pain of heartbreak was all-consuming, and she felt like she was drowning in it.
--
As I look into your tear-filled eyes, my heart aches to see you in such distress. My precious baby, my love for you is infinite and nothing in this world can ever change that. So come here, my darling, let me give you a warm, comforting embrace. This hug is not just any hug, it's your favorite one that always seems to make everything better.
I know the world can be a harsh and cruel place. It's a fact that we must learn to face, but that doesn't mean we have to let it defeat us. You have promised me that you will stay strong, and I believe in you. You have the courage and strength to face whatever challenges come your way. Remember, you are not alone. I will always be here to support and guide you through life's ups and downs.
I may not be physically present with you right now, but my love will always be with you. You carry a piece of me in your heart always, and nothing can ever change that. We may be apart for now, but we will meet again someday. Until then, always remember that you are loved more than words could ever express.
My dear child, I want you to know that you hold a special place in my heart. You bring joy and happiness to my life that I cannot explain. I am grateful for every moment we spend together, and I cherish each memory we make. You are my sunshine on a cloudy day, and I cannot imagine my life without you.
So let those tears fall, my love. Cry as much as you need to, but remember, this will be the last time you shed tears for this reason. From now on, we will face the world together, and I will wipe away any tears that may fall from your eyes.
I love you more than you will ever know, and I will always be here for you, no matter what. Thank you for being my child, and thank you for allowing me to be your mother. Until we meet again, my love.
