The double-edged sword of Love

I sat there at the computer, taking in all that had just happened. I shook my head, trying to form words, but found none. I closed my eyes tightly, hoping things would change when I opened them again. But instead I saw the image of Rose… except she wasn’t smiling… she was distraught, and a tear rolled slowly down her cheek as she reached out towards me…

I clenched my teeth tightly and opened my eyes, the image burning a hole in my heart. I picked up the wireless mouse and threw it across the room; It broke in two when it hit the wall. I bit my lip hard, then stomped off to my room, collapsing on the bed.

I cried out in frustration and pounded the bed with my tightly-clenched fists.
What did I do wrong…? I’m so stupid, falling for a girl I’ve never seen in my life…
“Why, Rose… why…” was all I could manage to say as tears escaped my eyes, and I began sobbing.

I forgot my earbuds were still in, and heard lyrics pour into my ears.
If you love me, won’t you let me know…
