Look

By Pranjal Kharbanda

I’ve loved you from the first moment

The second you looked into my eyes

I could try to say the opposite

but my heart never lies

In fact, she’s too honest

overshares a great secret

an immense capacity for love

so, when people try to keep it

I put the armor on

but it has hearts gently drawn

malleable, weak

one crush and it’s gone

I’m crushed, a crush 

that seems silly to say 

a crush that crushed  

every reason I had not to stay

You, I’d love 

Even if love never existed 

You, I’d love 

Even if the plot completely twisted

Broken, unravelled

for you I’d come back together

if your thoughts are too heavy 

for you I’d become a feather
