when was a time they experienced unrequited love?:
[ 300 / 300 words ]
I was staring at the face before me, torment engulfing their eyes and a quivering lip on the verge of baring teeth.
I love you they spoke furiously, a paw reaching forward to swipe at me but I only returned it equally. they diverted their path towards my cheek and hit its own and I recoiled along with them. I felt their pain too as I reached to feel the sting upon my cheek.
slipping from my face I turned back to them as they did the same and we saw in each other the stains snaking along the lines of our faces, dried and crusted. I picked away at the dreary aftermath of our situation as they did the same. but, the same lines were coursing with the same tears once again as we both turned to each other again and the face before me once again yelled in building frustration, I love you.

I couldn't stand to look at them. watch them lie to me. how could they say they love me now? only now? as a horrifying lie? I'm the one who loved them and they could not love me! and now they tell me they love me. but, I just don't believe it. I never did.
we grasped towards each other in a last attempt to hold on to something, anything. but, my paw only met their's and my eyes only met their's. a strangled cry of something like hopelessness mingled with regret escaped my mouth and clouded that of the face staring back.
I punched them.
I could never learn to love them no matter how hard I tried. they could never love me. a never-ending entanglement of lies to each other.
the shattered pieces of the mirror crumbled with a deafening ringing.

bleeding shards.
