Naive Love

By Jenny Rose Kunnappally

I was naive when I first fell in Love, don't know what ‘LOVE’ even meant, Was it the butterflies in my stomach? Was it the adrenaline rush? Was it the overwhelming feel? Was it the excitement? Or was it just seeing him?

I was naive when I first fell in Love, don't know how why or when,

it seemed right just then,

But does he even know what I feel? or was it just unrequited Love? Does he have the same butterflies? Does he have the same adrenaline rush? Does he have the same overwhelming feel? Does he have the same excitement? Or was it just me smiling dumb at him?

I was naive when I first fell in Love, don't know whom to ask for help, But I stood there in vain looking for aid, as he walked past without saying a thing, Neither did he care, nor did I have the courage to ask,

Don't know what was right or wrong then, But I know I was hurt, but I stood there strong yet again

I was naive when I first fell in Love, still wondering what’s in my destiny, Is it a Happy Ending or a New beginning? Will it be a straight path or a rocky road?

Will he hold me, or will I fall apart? Will it be a Yes or will it be a No? All these unanswered questions yet to be unfold….

But all I know is that I still want to fall in “Love.”
