TWO MINUTES (PART 1)

We struggle to reach a bargain as I wrap my arm around her, she wriggled her body to disentangle herself from my embrace, but I couldn't let go, I held on with all the strength in me, I feel that might be the last time I will get this close. 'No' she said, as I felt her heart beat wildly in her chest, or maybe it was my heart beating erratically, I really cannot tell at this point, I was so far gone. My heart hurt deeply within my chest as I her words echo in my mind. ' I will never kiss you again' she said.

I must look pathetic, I see it in her eyes; the way she looks at me whenever I catch her stolen glances. Maybe  she thinks this broken fellow doesn't deserve her love;doesn't just measure up.Well, I'm certainly not the person she loved years back. Oh, I was very confident, walked with shoulders held high and a definite bounce in my gait. Now, I'm all but a shadow of myself, her constant rejection and denial has sapped me of my confidence. All I seem to do is grovel at her feet and beg for love. Yes, it is pathetic, I know, but I don't seem to have the willpower to let go. I can feel a part of me die as she vows to leave me.

'You have to turn it off, we can just be friends' she says as she avoids looking into my eyes. My dear, I scream in my mind, 'you are driving me crazy, feelings cannot be turned off at will!'  and then I simply look at my nose in dejection and say 'I'm not a switch'.....
