Intense Gaze

He extended his hand

Smiled brilliant lights

Showered intense gazes

And yet again

I turned away

Somehow, I reluctantly turned

Again,

His smile widened

Gaze intensified

But me?

Guilt washed over my heart

Pain throbbed in my heart

And I turned my back again

This happened not once

Not twice

But a million times,

And I'm still reluctant

I'm still distant

And every time I turn around

To face him again,

His smile widens

Gaze intensifies

Hand stretches again,

As if nothing ever happened,

As if I never faced back,

As if I never cheated

As if I never tried to forget...

And every time my heart hardens

Stopping me from feeling anything at all

Perhaps guilt has become a mountain

But Him?

Every time I meet His eyes,

His hope enlightens

His smile widens

Gaze intensifies

And He stretches His hands again.
