response to an opera

The sea roared and so did her heart. She was a strong woman.
She wasn't supposed to let this happen to her. He broke her heart ,
took all and gave nothing. She was devastated she mourned but she
was still strong and however much it hurt she would be alright.
She let the wind blow her hair and the sea mist moisten her skin.
It felt good and appropriate for how she was feeling.
She had let him hurt her heart! But she wouldn't let it happen again,
she would no longer wear her heart on her sleeve,
she would hold it safe for her protection. She thought she was
stronger than this. wasn't she? yes she was! Then she cracked and the
tears came. and her fingers quickly wiped them away but they continued to come.
She sat down sinking into the sand. Her beautiful white dress
was now covered in sand and water. She was glad of that,
for she now held it as a sign of a wedding, of a love that would never be.
She put her head softly in her hands and for the fist time in a
very long time sobbed her heart out. She sat their until she no
longer had any tears. When she finally looked up, a soft white
butterfly soared above the water. And she knew that she would be alright.
she stood up her eyes burning and eyes even more so, and quietly walked
quickly home.
