We were in love once and then that came to a sudden halt. Why? You never said. Your love for me just vanished. And then you vanished. Of course, it wasn't voluntary. I took care of that. I saw your disbelief and then your fear. And now I live with the horror of your scream.
The depth of my heart, cavernous, cold, and soulless, offers me only my past. Its drumming is a constant reminder of that moment. How can I have a future when I cannot stop embracing yesterday and not a happy day at that.

The word cavernous reminds one of Coleridge, Pamela. As they say, heart has its reasons that reason doesn't know of!

Noti like the fury generated by unrequitted love. Nice story, Pamela.

Pamela, your sentences tend to be epigrammatic. That adds great charm to your stories. This one is a great example. Very well done.
