THE BEGINNING: ABANDONED

in #poetry7 years ago

I woke up to meet an empty room, Shaqur was gone, the memory lingering in my head was the feel of his lips on my aching lips... I felt tears build up and I choked back a loud sob.

He'd told me his IT would take him away, but I didn't want to believe it. I wanted him to stay with me, maybe not forever, but just for one more day. But Aisha was calling, and he wasn't mine in the first place.

My rounded belly bumped into the shelf as I stood up to go to the bathroom, I couldn't even try to smile through my tears becayse I'd been abandoned yet again. Pregnant, with all the problems weighing me down. There was one last thought in my head as I turned on the shower, what was that on my mirror?
