Deserted..

There was a small contest called "Write Right" in my workplace which I participated in . The contest was that we had to write a story/poem but the catch was it should contain exactly "50 words" only. I was lucky enough to get my write up published. :) Here is my contribution....


He stood helpless as his love walked away from his dreams of togetherness.
He gazed at his best friend as he stole her away with every step.
The image blurred with tears in sight, as emotions of -
treachery in friendship,

love's betrayal,
anger,
pain -
trickled as he stood alone.
All Alone.
