Day 26- Mishaps in Love

I am about to ask something with a tight lipped smile while you sit infront of me,
You don't utter a single word, your lifeless gaze enough to kill me.

"Do you remember how we danced on the marble floor,
You told me you loved me, you'd never let me go.
Playing in the background was a Beatles song,
Everything in that moment felt perfect, nothing seemed wrong.

You hugged me close and you swayed me slowly,
We were drunk, we were young, Oh! We loved each other wholly.
You smiled that gorgeous smile and you lifted my chin up,
I grinned sheepishly, your face made me fall in love with you every passing minute.

We defyed the world together, the stage was ours now,
Nothing felt more right than a summer night with you now.
I felt alive in the warmth you provided,
Wanting to live and die by each other was what we decided.

Ineffable moments we cherished, but we could not defy fate,
So fate swallowed you badly, I could not save you from that state.
Now you sit infront of me, a bandage wrapped around your head,
And I ask if you remember all that I just said.

'No' is what you reply,
So my dear, for the first time you make me cry.
I leave the hospital room in a hurry,
Seeing you like that wasn't easy,
'My my!' The heavens started to cry, 'It wasn't meant to be'.

So now, with myself I dance around,
Picturing you infront of me in our once lively lounge.
On the worldly stage, the people laugh at me,
They speak bitter behind my back now, they laugh at me.

Fate snatched you away from me and it was silly of me 'not' to think,
The universe only provides one so much when it's planning to take away something."
