Your smile confesses

that you're ready

to pursue this till brokenness

– Susheela Raman, Light Years

There is this last line neither of you crosses. You could say a thousands things to tear it down, do a million more. Some say the change would be so fluid as to be unperceivable, the space between one breath and another.

But you do not think so. You know, the change will be sudden. Violent, dark and consuming.

You fear what it might make you feel.

Want.

You struggle with it, time and time again. You know you're not alone in this.

Which makes it worse.

Because his eyes burn you, while his smile says he still believes in you.
