Too Beautiful (as published in EMANILA.com)

Too Beautiful Jheric A. Saracho She taps her red fingernails on the tabletop. Staring at the roses. Enclosed card reads: To my Love, You are too beautiful. Love, Me She sits back – looking through the glass. China eyes holding a wealth of sadness. Drops of emotion trickle down her cheeks. Sparkling like diamonds. She tries to stop the flood, but the gates hold only for so long. Golden band of vows haunt her of promises broken: emotional scars that only the heart can see.
