Masked

"And for the first time in her life, she let her mask fall down….The moment it touched the floor, it revealed so much pain, sorrow and happiness….Her eyes were full of sadness but she was holding on. She knew she was strong, but she was holding too much…She let her guard down so fast, without even thinking about what might happen…She knew it's all over. It really was over. She was exhausted from fighting and so tired of hoping. And while she was hiding tears in the corners of her eyes, there he was, standing not so far away, looking so purely into her broken soul, and  just as he started walking towards her, all of a sudden, she picked up her mask again, raised her guard and somehow threw back her tears…. She thought he will walk away, simply, without looking back, leaving memories on his side of her bed, on the pillow where he spend nights looking at her eyes, her beautiful but masked eyes. He was enchanted by the feelings she carried in herself. The moment her mask fell down, he recognized why he wanted to hold her forever. She wasn't really sure what was she feeling at the moment but she did remember all those sleepless nights and all the tears that fell into fire…. She could see the flames burning, and almost hear her broken heart crying. She was broken, and he did it. She was an accomplice in her own murder. She was following the steps he walked but was never able to reach him. And she did hear the sound of a train coming but she was standing calmly. She was looking into his eyes; she had a mask on and was protected. He was walking and walking towards her coming from another platform. That few seconds seemed like the eternity. And as if it were an old movie, he finally came, took her hand and looked her deeply into eyes, he wanted to see the look she had seconds ago and as much as he was looking, he couldn't find even a sign of it. She was cold again and was burning inside…. "Please don't leave again", she said and let her heart unprotected for a minute. She has already fallen for him….He smiled and kissed….And she had her world back now….And they filled warmth on each other's lips….He took off her mask and put her guard down….She now had him….And she….Well….She is me…."
