When you are the one not reciprocating!

If to be accepted by the one you love is the greatest pleasure in the world then to be kept at a distance should be the greatest despair. If reciprocation of love is the best feeling in the world than not getting the love of one you desire should be the most severe wound inflicted on the soul.If sharing some moments of joy with the one your heart has chosen is divine than being unable to even express the desire to meet that person should be nothing short of the fire of hell. But let me tell you it's not.

The greatest pain in the world is being unable to reciprocate the love of one who has devoted his/her life to you. The greatest misery is seeing that person fight himself everyday to make you comfortable and your life easy. The most mighty blow to your heart can be seeing someone repressing his/her keenest desires and practice utmost restraint and choose each word with utter caution while talking to you. Your heart can not only bleed when it's broken, it can also shed tears while only being at the receiving end of so much warmth and love. You can not be more sadder when your efforts to make life slightly happier for the person only take him further in his melancholy. The desolation of seeing the gloomy eyes of that person is far superior to the unhappiness that your heart experiences when it doesn't get to see the one it loves. That torment is very mighty which strikes you when each effort at redefining your relation with that person only leaves him more grieved.

But the most potent source of sorrow is not all these feelings , it is the feeling of still not being able to care for that person in the way he/she desires. It is the feeling of being the one not reciprocating.
