Biased Eyes

"It's creepy how one's eyes can say so many things in just simple eye contact. It's strange how eyes can hold so many things without letting us know.

People say eyes are the reflection of a person's soul. I guess that's true."

"That is why I love diving beneath those pretty eyes of yours and swim in the ocean of love that you have for me. It's weird how one can love so selflessly, how one can utterly devote his life for the sake of love. Isn't this the best feeling one can ever feel? "

 

"It can be the worst one too.".

You seemed fazed by my sentence and searched for my eyes. I know what you were trying to do, you were looking for the validation of my words in my eyes.

Exhaling a sigh, I realized we've been staring at the sky for the past thirty minutes, I looked at you, to be precise I looked into your eyes and saw everything fading away. "It's indeed the best feeling in your perspective because you're feeling it. You're living in it and you're cherishing it for the one you love. "

You were staring at nothing now, I could see what you were thinking. You weren't thinking of us anymore. You stopped thinking about us a long time ago.

"You know your eyes just reflected what you were thinking about. " And with that I let you dive into my eyes. The moment our eyes connected you knew it. You knew it you never felt that best feeling for me. You knew it that I know I wasn't the one for whom you were cherishing that best feeling.

 

I tore my gaze away and said, " I can see through you my love, it's okay to love like that. It's okay if that love wasn't for me, it's okay if your eyes told me what you couldn't say."

"I'm sorry," you said with your head between your shoulders.

"Don't be sorry for loving someone selflessly. " You looked at me this time, not into my eyes, and said "you are still the best thing happened in my life and no one can change that. "

I couldn't see the validation for what you said in your eyes but tried to neglect it and smiled. Surprisingly, this time your smile didn't even match your eyes, I ignored that too. " it just happened, I wanted to tell you but.. "

I hushed you before you could complete what you were saying.

I stood up, retreating from you, from us, from every single memory of us, and hold your gaze for the last time. "It's okay, people don't get to choose who they fall in love with, but surely can choose who they want to stay in love with."

With that I walked away, staring again at the sky, letting my eyes pour out everything they had been holding for a long time." Next time don't let someone's eyes fool you" I whispered into nothingness.
