I gasped breath in and out and closed my eyes and thought that I would never forget this feeling, of him on me and in me, of him consuming my soul and letting me go. He was too callous, too far gone to realize that I'd never be free of him, and all he'd really done was set me adrift. I never left that bed. That feeling of helpless abandonment and unendurable longing stayed inside of me, for hours, for minutes, for weeks. For years. I went through my life, through tragedy and pain, through hardship and life, and my heart, my very sould, stayed in that bed. I felt broken after that last encounter. Pieces of me had been shattered on that bed, important, essential pieces, and they would not, could not, ever find their way back together. But I kept going. Life is cruel like that.”",
