The Unexpected Spark
Do you remember the first time when you felt something strange, like something strong, not in your control?
Yes, the first crush memory.
One random day and unexpected meeting led to the brewing of uncharacteristic feelings – automatically, like the aroma of much-needed coffee on early winter mornings.

It starts subtly.
The warmth of unrequited feelings spreads slowly, consuming you for eternity—without your consent.
•Their presence silences the chaos in your world
• Erupts ripples in your heart.
• Soothes the ache of loneliness— like the warm bowl of soup in the sickness.
An anchor to hold onto, a reason for believing in faith.
It leaves a constant urge to see, silent wishing, guessing, and hoping.

A New Kind of Restlessness
But you were unaware, for a time being, only to realise you were experiencing the feeling of loving someone, wishing to stay together.
The way someone stormed into your calm, peaceful life and unknowingly snatched your peace, gifting you restlessness– a new feeling that only you feel, and they were unaware of.
When they become your everything, the colours started emerging into the black-and-white canvas like life.
Filling the void and spreading something electrifying and magical.

From nothing in the dawn to your everything in the dusk, an obsession that too out of nowhere, just randomly.
Your thoughts are now all about him. It feels like everything flipped 180°.

Being Close, Yet Invisible
The hesitation to talk–unspoken feelings, the searching eyes, the restless heart and mind, the sneaking glances, the reviewing of the area just to find them somewhere, and the relief of finally finding them.

They are the beauty of one-sided love.
But for now it remains beautifully unrequited.
You loving them with everything and them being oblivious.

The feeling of being so close, yet so far away.
• The desire for them to look at you once.

• The envy towards the lucky people they talk to.
• The hope of being around them.

The Beauty and Ache of Being Invisible
It's selfless to love without an identity, but there's hidden longing , a selfishness to be seen, to be held, to seek the warmth of his arms.
To drift into sleep listening to his heartbeat. His subtle presence, a soothing rhythm to the chaos of the day.

Yet, it hurts.
The thought of you knowing them thoroughly, them being your everything, but your existence yet to be a discovery–with no certainty, and you being their nothing.
Yet there's the excitement to see them even for a second, to have a moment to share a few words, and the fear of expressing and not having something beautiful blooming in the near future.
There's magic in the waiting, but in the silence of the night, it leaves a stinging sensation.
The selflessness stings quietly.
Simplicity haunts.

The Quiet Disappearance
Then, one day, just pain remains; the cure, the inflictor, vanishes— just how they appeared.
Suddenly, they disappears, leaving a void for you to fill that they had nothing to do with.

Everything is going in reverse; you're back to normal life before them.
The strange feeling still lingers – the unrequited love, the desires to be acknowledged.
They now have a chapter memorised and etched; now they need to move on to the next.
But the beautiful memories of one-sided crushes were still preserved.
Leaving a beautiful, curious experience with you.
A feeling that made everything tolerable and interesting.

Do you remember this feeling? I do.
Was it a crush, idolising, or infatuation?
A fleeting memory.
Whatever it was, it was an innocent first crush, just a true wish waiting to be fulfilled.
Magical, simple yet beautiful.
The restlessness then, and calmness later.
Incomplete, unrequited, and secomments—thus, a memory yet beautiful.
