PROLOGUE
"𝐃𝐚𝐦𝐧, 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬."
There's something about the way we were created that continues to fascinate me - more specifically, our eyes.
I find it so weird, that a person's eyes can bring out the deepest memories, the ones that stay hidden, tucked away in the depths of your heart. It's like smelling a certain fragrance that reminds you of your childhood.
Those candy-green eyes, like toffee apples from the carnival. Or the quiet, enchanting forest.
Those silvery-grey eyes, like clouds in a thunderstorm. Or the moon on the darkest night.
Those dark brown eyes, like chocolate that melts on your tongue. Or pools of sweet honey.
Those deep blue eyes, like the deepest oceans. Or the endless blue skies.
I've always wondered how people can read others' emotions just by looking at their eyes. How can you tell they are angry? How can you tell they are filled with love? I can never figure it out. I can never look into a person's eyes because, even if I can't figure out their emotions, they might see mine and that, that could be the death of me.
But then, when I think about it, I can remember some times in my life I probably did understand someone's feelings in their eyes.
Those dark eyes, like two black holes sucking me into a world of pain and suffering. But, eyes don't necessarily have to be dark to be evil. Like those green ones. I put all my trust in them only to be burnt down like a fire raging through a forest.
Then there's the good-
Those green eyes never judged me for anything I did.
Those grey eyes read me like a book.
That one boy with the crazy eye colours never failed to make my day.
Those brown eyes made me feel safe.
And those blue eyes, eyes so blue I drown, dragged me up from the depths of my sorrows.
I never wanted to fall. I never wanted to drown. I never wanted to get lost in a forest of emotion.
But I dared myself to look into their eyes, and I was never the same again.









Happy Birthday!!! Also I'm really digging this book of yours so far, and I can't wait for more!!!
