"You hide" he says as he inches closer, provoking me to slam my back into my wall.

"Not in the way most people think. You act happy, visibly content, but you still I know you desire more. You desire more than this deflated part you forced yourself to play. They don't see the why behind your light, because you are the light. A present that is always constant, always flickering, always able to those in desperate need of hope to chase away the fear, the darkness. I want it all. All the light and all the darkness. Your smile, your eyes that are always dancing with joy. Your mind that never seems to not leave me speechless. I want to explore everything about you. I want to know every minor detail about your day, your thoughts, to understand you, to love you" he breaths.
