stares
stares can mean a lot of things. they mean a lot for me.
stares are the closest thing to do when you cannot hold someone near to your heart.
it is the hug of a love story that was not. it is the kiss of a love that has chosen to let go. it is the "i love you" of an unspoken, gruelling, exhausting, emptying, unrequitted love.
and then... the glance.
the glance is the most hurting reply to a stare. it says, "i want to but i can't. so just stare at me. you can love me but i cannot love you back because of several reasons. reasons that somehow, love cannot defy. maybe this love isn't that strong. just stare. i'll glance if i can. i'll glance when no one's watching. i'll glance... but that's all i can do."
it hurts to stare and glance.
so why stare and glance when you can just close your eyes and try to bury the pain in the dark?
...because of the only reasons that love can defy.
