when heart surpasses the supremacy of  mind,

and Cupid’s arrow mistakenly strikes the hearts

and hearts begin to wander and play

it is then when tragedy finds its way

when the music operator fails to harmonize the melody

and music begins to fool around

and poets write poems of misery

it is then when tragedy has seated comfortably

when chemistry fails to combine the elements of love

and lovers find comfort in the other side

and untruthfulness  breeds so much stronger

that is when tragedy expresses its joy forever

when love bounces mistakenly 

and partners lost their intimacy

and this paves the way to infidelity

that illicit lovers experience becomes a tragedy.

all these things can bring momentary joy

for two displeased people who want to be free

and both lovers share the sweetest flares

but tend to forget the ending it bears

don’t ever imagine the moment’s freedom and joy to be right

because this episodic love affair can never survive

heart break and sorrowful fate have to follow yet

and this story will be more tragic than Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.
