Love looks not with eyes,
But with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind."
-William Shakespeare
All she wanted was for him to notice her.
In her mind, she knew that it was impossible. But her heart still yearned, and longed to catch his eye.
It was silly, she knew, but sometimes she wished she was like her; strong, beautiful, and noticed...
Her heart ached because he noticed her, he laughed with her, he loved her...
She hated her because she laughed away the love he so genuinely offered.
The love she had yearned for almost her entire life.
But it was foolish to wish for things that would never come to be.
She would always be a shadow under the brightness of his sun, always chasing after his golden rays.
Sometimes she wanted to forget him, to free herself from the pain of this unrequited love.
But every time she saw his sunny smile, his laughing blue eyes, her heart just melted all over again.
It was then she knew, she would always be ensnared, forever cursed to love a man who would never acknowledge her.
