042826 If only she could see herself through my eyes She would know that love at first sight wasn’t just a illusion, it was something real, something undeniable. She would see how her smile sends quiet tremors through me, I want to call her mine, and be hers in the same breath— but she’s not ready. Maybe she’s still untangling herself, maybe I’m just the space she rests while her heart finds its way back. Until then, I stand here— caught between patience and longing, feeling like I’m choosing for both of us. She pauses. She drifts. Maybe memories pull her backward— echoes of what she once felt, of what she lost, of what she fears to feel again. And I wonder… if she’ll ever look at me the way I look at her.
