I am so tired...- for you are taking my strength -
When I wish to take yours all day by looking at you, you only need a look.
And I'm dead.
I look down at my hands, staring at the blushing guilt of my cheeks and pouring my heart over a piece of paper.
One little look and you just manage to shoot me in my vital organ.
The most important one.
The most hurting one.
For it can be destroyed emotionally and physically.
You're making both happen.
And I love you for that.

The author's comments:
I don't know if you've ever loved a guy and when you look at him in the eye, but especially, when he looks at you, you just feel like there's a fire growing, a flame standing all alone in your chest and this flame you can't control stays there a long time after the look. This guy I like is destroying my inside. And I admit, it's very hard to stand.
