I met her first. I loved her first. But my best friend swept her away, and since then, my heart’s been imprisoned.
I promised myself I would let my feelings for her go, let all of her go, and let them live their happily ever after. But now he’s gone, and I’m left picking up the fractured pieces of her broken heart.
Suddenly, my life’s been derailed, thrown off course, off track. I promised myself I wouldn’t let my feelings for her come surfacing back.
But seeing her again?
I don’t know if I can keep that promise. She’s thrown me off the path I set forth for my imprisoned heart. But now, am I forced to break that promise I made to myself so long ago?
