Why is it so hard to look into his eyes? Those eyes full of love, full of promises, full of peace whenever they meet mine. They say when you love someone, you can’t stop looking into their eyes. Yet for me, I couldn’t hold them for long. Why was it so hard for me? Maybe there was a reason. Maybe I was afraid— afraid that if I truly saw his eyes, they would reveal the truth, that one day, he might look at someone else the same way he looks at me now. And that thought— it would linger, it would haunt me forever.
