What i see
I see a man on a white shirt, lying a on a brown table with an empty liquor beside him.

What i feel
I feel he drank himself to stupor and passed out on the table, i feel he's tired probably form issues weighing heavily on his chest and felt drinking will ease the heaviness.

Story

"Can you be reasonable, Alice,? What do you mean you want a divorce? On what grounds, please? I have been faithful all these years, i have tried to love the best way i can, i take care of you and provide your for needs, Elijah said

I have spoken to my lawyer, he will send you the divorce papers please sign them. And to answer you, this is not working anymore, we don't do things like we used to and everything feels same. I just want something new, something fresh an all. You get? She replied him.

"Marriage is not something you can walk in and out when you feel like". It's more Alice and if you give us another chance, I'm sure we can make it work. Tell me how you want me to love you and all you want me to do and i will do it babe, please not divorce you can take a few weeks holiday to clear your mind Elijah said..

Nothing you say or do now will change my mind, Good bye Elijah, and please sign the papers when they get to you. Alice said leaving with some of her things.

Heartbroken and devastated he walked to the bar at home, picked a liquor bottle and drank straight from it without a glass.. Wow can't believe my second marriage failed again. What do they really want? What am i doing wrong he asked his self as he drank more.

Thank you for reading🙏🏾

Wow amazing

Hmmm...
I still haven't recovered from my last breakup

Recovering takes time. Give it time you will heal from it

What a beautiful piece this is. Heartbreak is not always easy to deal with.

Thank you. No is not.

A failed second marriage is enough to send a man into depression. I felt really bad for Elijah, because dealing with heartbreak is never easy.

It's not, and the healing process takes for ever
