Challenge
A Century!
A drabble is a short work of fiction of precisely one hundred words in length.
It is a tricky piece of work but a fun challenge!
Write a drabble that revolves around eyes or even better eye colour!
A musky brown that reminds you of a beach or the cold, grey eyes which are emotionless? Anything is welcomed here!
Just remember that it should be of 100 words; 90 at the minimum. Maximum is a 100.

blue.
the sort of blue that promises silence.
your stare scared me at first. there was something so honest about it. i wasn't used to that sort of honesty. it had been a long winter.
my own eyes had experienced a lot of tears. warm and salty, falling onto a cold floor. i was tired, so tired.
but you managed to save me.
it couldn't have been anyone, it had to be you. the right place, the right time. it could have never happened.
i know that this won't last forever.
but maybe it will last for a little while.
