He Didn't Know

She looks out the window and sees the rain. 
She closes her eyes as thoughts and memories of him come rushing through her mind.
She runs outside and lets the cool rain drops mix with her salty tears.
~
He looks up from his coffee and looks around. 
He could have swore that he heard her voice. 
He sighs and puts his head in his hands. 
He didn't think it would feel this way.
~
She tumbles out of bed, screaming his name out loud. 
Sobbing, she wraps her arms around herself. 
She clutches his shirt tighter around herself. 
Begging him to come back.
~
She doesn't stop plaguing his mind. 
Life goes on around him as he daydreams. 
His thoughts so confused, swirling like a hurricane inside his head.
He needs to hear her voice. 
He needs to see her smiling face.
~
She sits on the hill, where they always met. 
She felt the wind rushing through her hair as she closed her eyes. 
Her mind elsewhere. 
Her mind where she wish she could be. 
~
He decides this is enough. 
He grabs his phone and car keys and begins the long drive. 
He can't let her go. 
The worst thing was. 
Was that he didn't know what he would be missing- 
What life would be like without her. 
~
She stands on a bridge, watching the river flow down below. 
And she jumps. 
The adrenaline rushes her head as her feet meet the icy water.  
She smiles and lets the icy water close around her. 
~
He jumps out of the car. 
He yells her name and watches her disappear under the water.
He jumps in after her. 
He's not going to lose her again. 
~
She feels his hand close around her.
She thinks its Jesus come to save her. 
She gasps as she is pulled to the surface. 
And brought back to reality. 
~
He smiles. She is still with him. 
He watches her beautiful smile spread over her face. 
Tears slowly fall down his cheeks. 
~
She laughs at herself. 
How silly was she. 
She closed her eyes, and surrenders herself to his embrace.
