last night shannon needed space. tom was smothering
her.
shannons no longer sure toms the one for her. the engagement is off.
tom was crying. and shannon was crying. and they were asking shannon
what was wrong. but all i could do was hold tom and tell him to cry
some more. i gave him my hand and told him to squeeze it hard. i knew
what he was feeling and no amount of words could have healed him.
a young boy. so naive. so innocent. still living in his fantasy world.
now shattered. the pain this must cause. the pain it did. it does with
everyone. i wish he could still live there in that land beyond
reality. everyones a prince. and everyone is happy. with tom shannon
has lost the true love she dreamt of as a child. and yesterday tom
lost the true love he dreamt of in shannon. how i would wish that we
could all stay so innocent. so ignorant of the world and all its
disappointments. ignorance is truly bliss.
