Searching.
Endlessly searching.
She couldn’t figure out
Where he was.

It seemed only moments ago
When she felt
The warmth of his breath,
His hand in hers.

Running around in circles.
She needed to find him.
Trapped in this maze.
Forever.

She could still hear his cheerful laugh,
Increasingly audible with each step.
Excited and relieved,
She runs faster towards the sound.
Heart skipping a beat at the thought.

She turns the corner.
Finds him.
Holding another,
Laughing at her flirtations.
She turns around,
She has lost her prince.

I like the ending, but I agree with Evelyn, it does kind of fall at the end.

Overall I thought it was really good and I liked the maze comment.

:D

This...is...amazing. So much depth and sorrow. I like how you built it up and crashed it down at the end. This is exactly how I've felt (exchange the character roles of course!) when I was about to tell the person I loved that I cared so much for her. I found her in the arms of another and I just walked away. This brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.
