And Then He Left by Mirrah McGee

Shane

I’m 26, I own my own home that I remodeled with my dad, and I am steadily employed in construction. On paper, my life is in order. But nobody lives on paper. Me? I live in the shadows of my own life, unwilling to bring attention to myself and the man I have become spending years buried under carefully constructed lies and meaningless club bathroom hook-ups.
I met him, I circuited with him, I loved him, I denied him…and then he left. And I can’t blame him.
Now, I have to figure out if the shadows are where I want to remain…alone.
