I SHOULD NOT HAVE LOOKED

I should not have looked.
I should not have opened my eyes.

But I did…
And the world stopped.

I saw the moment your face surrendered,
when your eyes burned
with a truth you never dared to speak.

It was like touching fire with bare hands:
the heat, the vertigo,
the certainty there was no way back.

Your touch brief, yet eternal
sealed within me a secret that will not fade.

Now I know.
And knowing is like breathing light
for the very first time.
