A Thousand Nights.

I'm not in love.

I look in his eyes but simply can't comply.
I can't say the words he so willingly expressed without remorse.
The silenced night absorbs my breaths as I think of others ways to say I can't.
There is no way I can see him as an eternal lover.
For he is one who will come and go like the others.
I can't love something that will with ease let me go.
The blaring thought resounds in my mind til it whispers through my lips.
' I'm not in love.'
