Oh, why you look so sad?

Friday, this damned city of angels is burdened by clouds, I by perplexity. All afternoon I've been hiding from the outside world in the greyish Etro cashmere sweater I bought him for his birthday in January. This morning, without notice like a summer storm, he came by to return it with the poisonous words well, I guess that's it. I looked at him awkwardly in silence and then watched him walk away, convulsively holding on to the soft sweater.

He must have worn it. It smells like him. Smells like defeat.

  1. That is so sad.
    I really hope you aren't feeling too bad, since people have left you all of your life (that's what you said).
    I just wanna give you a hug.

  4. so beautifully written, so horribly sad. i wish... i don't know what i wish for you. these things never turn out quite right, do they? as least the sunlight is not mocking you today, at least the clouds give an excuse for melancholy. not much but it's something.

  11. Stay strong, be confident with standing alone, prosper for only yourself, and watch the trial of success, love and fulfillment find you.

  12. Beautifully written, but wow this is so sad. Reading this reminds me of A Fine Frenzy - Almost lover, also a sad but beautiful song. I hope you are feeling better.
