Never Enough

Violet dragged herself across the floor to Thomas' side. The gaping wound was gushing blood with an eerie gurgle sound that made her wince.
"I love you," Violet whispered, her voice cracking with unconcealed horror.
"Yeah, I bet you say that to all of your boyfriend's enemies," Thomas taunted, his voice dripping with sarcastic jealousy.
"No, only the ones that I owe my life to," Violet whispered as Thomas leaned into the caress of her hand against his cheek.
This was all he needed, to be loved just once in his life; loved by the one girl that would never belong to him.
And for just once in his life. . . that was enough.1

    Done so much with so little effort

    I like how you cover an emotionaly taut and frantic scene with such economy of words.

    I think you have a sweet, emotion-filled piece here. I can see the image of what's going on clearly in my mind. I really think the last sentence made it end with so much more meaning. Well done and good luck.

    So sad

    Love is a weird thing. Like Thomas, I always seem to love the wrong person. Nice write, Shadow.
