A thought that someone
couldn’t say out loud
A point of view of someone who’s caught
in one-sided love scenario
Written by
It was the third day of our
university days when I saw him
crouching down along the dimlighted
hallway. Actually, I’d been
looking for him for almost an hour
now since he got away from the
crowd which was really unusual for
someone like him – outgoing and
loved to be in the sea of people.
My instincts were telling me that the
person I cherished the most was not
feeling alright at the moment. And
it’s killing me.
My heart thumped abnormally as
soon as I heard his muffled cries,
like someone’s ripping him alive. His
cries sounded like he’s been wanting
someone to hold him and as a person
who’s secretly admiring him, I would
gladly do that. But no, who would’ve
liked the sight of the person you like
crying their hearts out?
Obviously, no one. No one can fathom
even a millisecond sight of it.
