I smile when he gushes about her ,
That twinkle in hi eyes chips away at my heart.
Sometimes I don't understand the point,
Why did I have to elicit emotions for someone who isn't mine.
I know his favourites,his ambitions and all about his dark side ,
Painfully aware of his habits , fancies and everything beneath that smile ,
Is 90 days too short a time ?
Cause that's all it took me to want him as mine.
From the cheeky giggles to the days when everything leads to frustration,
I stayed witness to the slightest shift and the tidal crash of his emotions,
From his gait to his smell,
The way he's lost yet always present,
His mere presence held me enchanted.
I guess I understand why love becomes a hex,
The mere realisation of unrequited love steals your breath .
So close yet so far away ,
I know I'll have to let him go someday ,
Even if it crushes my heart to not make him stay .
- JOY.
