"Does she know you enough the way I did? " asks the girl who walked away... And all one could answer was...

No she doesn't,
Coz he'd never let anyone in after you left...
She doesn't know reasons for his scars because he has this vibrant picture on his face...
She doesn't know why he had closed even the smallest gaps in his window...
She doesn't know what it means when he says "You haven't been in that kind of love"
All she sees are shadows of his past under his eyes..
All she sees are those cheerful eyes now turned into a conundrum of life...
All she gets after being so close to him is mere glimpse of his soul hiding behind...
And maybe she does know something,
Like the song he only listens to for 10 seconds but never deletes from his phone...
Like the half modified tattoo that peep from under his sleeve which he avoids to reveal...
Like he doesn't sing while walking down the roads anymore...
Like he doesn't believe in things being lucky or unlucky...
Like how much more she wants to see him that happy...
Like how much she does to bring smiles on his face and turn them into laughters...

And most important thing she knows is that she wouldn't ever leave him, the way you did...
