“Chaos…”
I could barely speak. My heart was pounding, my mind was racing…my eyes were flooded with tears.
I couldn’t remember when my love for him had started to hurt, but I was more than used to it by now.
All I felt was this fire inside my chest… this terrible heartache, this desperate desire to be with him somehow, some way. It was never this bad before.
And yet I just couldn’t take my eyes away from his.
My beloved monster, I often call him… he has the most beautiful green eyes I have seen in my entire life. It still hurts to look into them… and I know exactly why.
Four years ago, we had a song that we sang together. I still remember some of the words.
“How can you see into my heart when you look deep into my eyes? What can you see?”
Isn’t it funny how that happens every time, now?
Even though I might be hurting so beautifully right now… in this moment, I know without a shadow of a doubt that he is feeling the same way.
When you’re this close you just know.
I can’t help it anymore.
I just want to feel my heartbeat against his chest… I want to feel his ethereal body against mine. I want to kiss him until the lights are on, just like that old poem said.
Never in my life did I ever think I would feel like this for anyone… let alone him.
And yet here I am.
He looked at me then, the same desperate fire visible in his own eyes. In that moment I realized that I had no idea how deeply we would lose ourselves tonight.
