[This is a work of fiction]
“Why??????”
My scream echoed off his retreating back. He walked away, leaving
behind a hollow that was me.
I threw my memories into the fire. Photographs, and movie
ticket stubs. Dried-up bouquets, and birthday cards. Chocolate wrappers, and glitzy
wrapping paper. I wished I could throw myself in and let the flames engulf me. I
couldn’t live without him. Wanted to join my cherished memories wherever they
had gone.

Poignant or humorous. Thought provoking or plain silly. A slice of life or a dramatic tale. Countdown to the New Year with a drabble a day, everyday only at The Burrow.
