There they were again. The same cold eyes, staring at you with a chilling emptiness that sent a shiver down your spine. Those eyes, once filled with warmth and affection, now seemed devoid of everything you once knew. They had become windows to an unfamiliar soul, leaving you weak in the knees with an overwhelming sense of loss. How had it come to this?
You had always wondered when the change had begun—when he had transformed into someone you barely recognized. This wasn't the Isaiah you had fallen in love with, the one who once looked at you with such tenderness, who whispered sweet words and shared quiet moments of understanding. No, this man, this stranger before you, was distant and cold, a person who refused to offer even the smallest shred of kindness.
You had tried to hold onto what was left, grasping at the fragments of a relationship that seemed to slip further away with each passing day. His touch, once gentle, had become absent, and his words, when they came, were harsh and clipped. He barely even slept beside you anymore. The bed you once shared now felt like a vast, empty space where your hopes of closeness and intimacy slowly withered away.
And there you were, on your knees before him, desperately tugging at his shirt, begging for something—anything—that might reignite the spark that once burned between you. Your voice quivered with emotion, the tears threatening to fall as you pleaded for him to treat you with the love you thought you deserved.
But your efforts were all in vain. Each plea, each whispered cry for him to see you, to remember the warmth you had once shared, was met with silence. He said nothing, only looked at you with those unfeeling eyes, as if your words had no meaning to him anymore.
The realization stung deeper than any wound. The man you once knew was gone, replaced by a hollow shell, and you were left grasping at the remnants of a love that no longer existed.
