Queen

A queen ruling her kingdom better than any king ever
So did the expectations from subjects upon her rose
And she tried hard not to fall or be criticized just because she was a woman
But that was all her life had become, an endeavour for acceptance

In her battle for equality, along with being a woman she forgot she was also a human
So did everyone around and no one took an effort to remind her
Why should they when all their needs were taken care of?
But somewhere deep inside she realises what she had become

She too was in search of that human inside her
And she found it in her pain
She felt alive through her pain
She put herself in pain and made sure the blood was pumping

But this wasn't who she used to be
She was alive once
Giving and gaining love, and she kept giving
Until the well of love in her went dry and there was no one to rain love on her

Once the human in her died, she covered up the well to not let it fill
How strange is this love
When found it never stayed
When stayed it was never found

The well did fill no matter how much she tried to cover it
And one day she will fall through those love soaked soil
She will feel she is drowning
But she will swim up and enjoy the water

A subject in love with his queen
A queen in love with her subjects
Both were in love
Yet the love wasn't same

She was the most beautiful
But it was never just an adoration of her beauty
He was the most loyal
And it was always that trust he will respect his duty

She was his queen
He was her imaginary king
Both were in love
Yet the love wasn't same
