The Unfulfilled Promise

You met them by chance and it was an instant connection. The chemistry share was way above your expectations. Yet, there were mixed signals from time to time. He was so much into you sometimes, however, didn't care about you at other times. Somehow your heart gradually started to believe that this was the fairytale you were looking for all your life.

Suddenly all your dreams just shattered and hopes vanished by their actions. But still you can't unlove or hate them now. And to add to this, there remains an unfulfilled promise.

Sunsets were your favourite. How both of you loved sunsets by the beach but failed to watch one together. Remember when he held your hand and asked to promise that you'll watch a sunset together before parting ways. And then, you placed your hand on his and promised. You were waiting for that last meet-up so eagerly but the rain just destroyed all plans.

Sometimes, it's heartbreaking when you fail to fulfill a promise which you once made to someone you love. The hardest part is that you'll never see them again. It makes your heart sick when you remember that you could not fulfill that last promise. You just can't fall asleep at night so you lay in bed trying to let go of all the heart-piercing memories. And now, every sunset seems like an unfulfilled promise. The guilt does not allow you to heal completely.
