Ocean eyes. ones I didn't fall for. I never got lost, never floated in your baby blue pools of serendipity. you said, "I love you" and in that moment I knew what love was because I didn't feel anything. you see, those words were supposed to mean the world to me but instead felt like an empty pistol; a dry flower petal. we danced. we sang. My voice an angelic song to your ears; yours a numb vibration. no feeling, no emotion. just words. You'd think my soul had no spark but it's simply because yours couldn't ignite mine. for when it would, fires would gleam gold in someone's eyes. When I slipped poisonous drops of cold rain on you, you stood still. for the first time I stared into your eyes, really seeing the hidden gems they are. An ocean full of salt rolled down your face into puddles on the soft concrete. Hopelessness, the only emotion that was drawn on your face. My grand mistake of breaking an already bleeding heart. I'm eternally sorry. Truly the first I love you I'll remember and the one I'll never understand.
