He kept believing that all hope is lost and there was no meaning to his life anymore.

I savour every second of this fantasy moment as I know I can't carry on, despite the sparks she ignites in me; despite my stolen heart opposing the idea, my mind has come to. I pull away from her and stare at her ocean eyes. 

Damn, those eyes. 

For once, all her walls have broken down, exposing the waves of vulnerability she has fought endlessly to be left in secret. 

All I want to do is just take a leap and drown in them to help calm her sorrows. However, I know if I do that, it'll inevitably be the calm before the storm. A storm so perilous and frightening that it'll leave a tremendous amount of wreckage. 

I can't take that risk. 

I inhale a deep breath of her intoxicating floral scent and say the bitter words that poison my tongue as they leave, "this can't happen between us."
