When our eyes met for the first time after two hours?

Sitting across each other on that train

You just looked at me

Until my eyes met yours

You stared at me

And there were so many emotions

And the look in your face slowly grew into a smile

And I smiled back at you

Bittersweet smiles facing each other

Why did you smile?

What were your eyes trying to tell me?

What was your heart too afraid to say?

I only now realized,
In this instant

The emotion I recognized in your eyes

It was love

It was no other thing but love,
unmistakably

Your eyes softened while our eyes were meeting

And there was this pain of letting me go,
That you decided to hide under a smile

You still loved me on that day we exchanged our things, even if you didn't say it out loud

Even if you didn't want to show at first

Your eyes didn't lie to me

(And I think this might make me cry)
