The Feeling

How far can one go to love someone? To love someone you don't know? To love someone you cannot have? To just adore that person as you glue up to the last bit of hope which seems to be burning from one end until it burns you up completely? Or how much can you beg for that person knowing its incongruous?

Love...

A mere four character word but still with a deeper sense to it. It has the caliber to either ruin you or to make your life adorable with bliss. Its serene yet passionate. Its weird yet so promising. Its change yet you do it. Its a beast yet you be the beauty. Everything counts when you drown in it. You happen to be a swimmer who drowns deep within it to explore those tempting feelings you once didnt even know that they existed. Its something that doesn't need words but can be explained with just eyes.

"I love you. I thought not to express it but now that you are leaving me this way...i could no longer remain silent" he said as I was about to leave.

I turned to face him. He had it all over his face. His eyes reflected what he said yet I knew I couldn't look into them for any longer time.

"I need to go" I proceeded towards the door when he instantly closed it and stood against it facing me.

"Leave me way" I said.

I was trying hard to stick to my feelings. I wasnt in love with this guy in front of me. I was attached deeply to someone else yet I couldn't understand why I was slipping my heart away.

"I wont. At least I deserve an answer" he said looking at me.

"You know my answer well. I am committed. I love someone else"

"But your words don't match your eyes"

I was flabbergasted. All i did wasto stare endlessly at him. The 6 feet tall guy was staring back at me as if he was trying to read my eyes.

I excused myself to leave as I tried hard to open the door. He leaned there against the wall and smiled watching my failing attempts.

"I know you feel too, its just that you like chaining those emotions in your heart. You dont like to share them. You like me I know"

I took a look at him. Somewhere he was right, I did fall for him in the long term bond. Yet i cannot fall for this guy. I wasnt in a dilemma either. My feelings seemed clear to me. I am sure about whom I want to be with. All those other details are neat infatuations.

"I am getting late"

The door unlocked as our eyes met for a brief time and we parted ways.
