His Eyes Were Always Watching
If I could go back-just once-I'd tell myself to run.
Not to hesitate. Not to second-guess. Not to let his smile deceive me.
I should have listened to the warnings. The subtle shifts in his voice. The way his grip tightened just a little too much. The way his presence lingered even when he wasn't there.
At first, it felt like love. Intense, all-consuming, irresistible.
But love shouldn't feel like a locked door. Like a whispered threat disguised as affection. Like the weight of unseen chains wrapped around your wrists.
I didn't see it then.
But his eyes were always watching.
