He looked behind him, blood red eyes scanning the horizon. There stood a sillouet of a love he could never again grasp within his rough hands. A geltle breeze picked its way through the bright green leaves on the warm summer evening, gently kissing his face.
A single tear escaped from his eye as he stared at the forever shrinking figure as it vanished into the warm colored sky before him.
Even though his face was pained and distraught, his soul smiled, hope welled within his aching heart, because even if everything fell around him, his world crushed and broken forever to the knowing ey e, hope would always be in his heart. Even as tears ran down his cheeks, spilling off his face and splattering onto the green grass at his feet, nothing could take away that hope.
He looked ahead of him and smiled, letting go of what was never his. The path layed before him would not be an easy one. It never was. A world with twists and turns and kinks that would never end.
With his head held high, he let go of what had happened, and took the first step into his future.
The past, nothing more then a memory.
