The more I have wondered,
The more I have realised that,
Most of us,
Are indeed in love,
With ideas or concepts,
We pass as our ideals,
And expect our work of fiction,
To walk out of ordinary doors,
With understanding, commitment and love pumping,
In their suddenly mortal hearts.
We preach acceptance,
Of imperfection by day,
And visualise,
Perfectly plump red lips and ocean blue eyes,
By night,
Eluding ourselves to believe,
That our campaign,
Is not just preached but also,
Religiously followed,
Repeating the same process over and over again,
In our minds,
We set ourselves up,
To lose,
Much before we have gained.
-Momentous infatuations lead to the real love.
