Loss

"I just don't feel the same way, I'm sorry," she said to him.
He had just confessed his love for her. He had loved her for so long now and he had just gathered the courage to say it. She shot him down like so many others before and so many more soon to come. He went home and cried for his loss of love. He felt embarrassed, shamed, and depressed. He tried to kill himself, but lost the will to try any more. Just like he lost his love.
