Guilt
He compels a smile to alleviate me but his eyes are merely green tinted windows into his anxious soul.
I see right through him. Remorse twists my stomach. I burn him with an accidental fire that the Atlantic Ocean cannot tame. I'm a pyromaniac despite my will.
There is nothing I can do to stop the burns thickening on his heart. Should I hurt him with my evanescence or with my infinite, unspoken lies?
The prospect of his misery torments me. I care. Why can’t I love?
He knows he is my silver medal, that I don’t feel the felicity I claim to. But what can you do when you love another? Another who does not love you.
