Unrequited....

This heart has you in it,
Take it or leave it.

There was no one until you stepped in my World,
Accept it or break it.

Life had no joy,
only boredom and tiredness,
Yet you made it look like a collage of fairytale;

Now you either believe it or not is upto you my friend.

My days are so tangible, nights so drenching,

Yet here you come with lots of Light and Substance;

I hold my hand to you,
lay my heart for you to see,

But you deny my eagerness--

In stead you offer to terminate my gaiety with your cruel sense of humility.

I care no more or I try not to--

But it's not easy to dethrone the one who has seen through YOU.

I try yet to persist, I can I can I can, I mumble passionately.....

Because the hurt my spirit feel is too strong, too profound to obliterate.

But I will have to carry on and on and on,

Because we have no destination--
And I know that I have lost you or I will someday--

So let us leave those emotions behind,
where it first felt something,

And move forward with strength and aloofness--

I don't want you to shed tears,
Nor do I want to mourn our unkept promise for years.

Let's go our separate ways,

It's what you asked of me in my absence... !

Note:

Someone in earnest, pens the feelings for Someone somewhere, unaware of the devotion and the depth of the other's emotion.
