You pine, I pine
My heart squeezes itself as yours aches for another
I thought you not being mine was punishment
What then is listening to your heart's cry for another,
When all I can do is smile at your pain
And hope, that at least ,
Your love is requited.

My eyes though unblinking,
Find yours unblinking and steadfast on another .
Watching every detail ,
Watching and lighting up with the briefest of movements
Like the leopard stalking its prey
Watching and taking in its movements

How can I not but bring you together
Like the Fate , entwine your threads
Even when I suffer through it

When the air only gets stifling
When my all, protest

Unsteady, my heart Where stories live. Discover now
