I broke it ♥

I follow you into the darkness, cold, shaking and scared, you’re hand grasps for mine, but I push it away, the silence between us, deathly, the atmosphere icy.
Tell me? Where were you, a year ago on this day?
It takes me a while, to realise where I am, and then I realise, we’re in the alley, where all this began, this is where I gladly handed you my heart, all that time ago.
Once again, October, brings that chill in the air, and the leaves start turning gold and begin to fall, that always reminds me of you. For a moment, I look into the sky, full moon. Beautiful. I avoid you’re eye contact, just incase you can read that look in my eyes, ‘the look’. We’re over now, and I’ve learnt to disguise how I feel. For a moment, I wonder why you’ve brought me here, as if reading my mind, with your hand you tilt my head up, to look straight at you, handsome, beautiful. Then without warning, something shimmering, glittering in the moonlight, slides down your face. Is that a tear? The sight of it making me weak, I forgive you, for everything. Anything.
With all the strength I have, I try to speak, but  no words come out, just icy breath. You walk a little  further, past the street lamp, and towards the bench. I should know this alley, like the back of my hand, but why tonight, does it look so unfamiliar to me.
Seated, I take a place next to you, silence.
From you’re pocket you pull out a box, my mind begins to wander, as you hand it to me, I’m scared, scared to open it. My belongings.
Carefully, my cold fingers trembling, my head pounding, I pull at the tape bounding the box together. Surrounded by autumn leaves, a heart. My heart. It’s barely beating, I’m too scared to touch it, for fear of the state it’s in. You have no problem with picking up my heart, carefully, you pull it out of the box, to hand to me, and it shatters into thousands of tiny pieces. In shock horror and open mouthed, I stare at you, just as the words “I’m sorry, I broke it”, spill from your lips.
