The End

By Kaushal Sha

with moments in mind and ever desire to text (read date);

I stand strong to forget, l know, this dating will stop someday,

The love is close, so are you, one will stay,

I am ready for the periodic October, when I fall for you all over, with careful words and lovely flowers, standing always by your corner, I will etch into you,

It took time to fall for you, it could have taken ages to find you, you were near, always ready to hear,

Alas, even I had thousand words for you, I could say just a few,

you knew where I was going, no stopping in my way,

All you could do was forge a weapon that no other could cross,

I was crazy that I didn't fathom that it would hurt this hard, hadn't been dumber enough,

long, lovely paragraphs of love, woven with sweetness and utmost care, beautifully shaped for you,

will be mere words for you, but for me was beyond love,

Well, blindness comes with immense love, I guess,

I go through those pages I wrote for you & find myself in misery,

Sometimes misery is synonymous to love, I could relate to it

For I was in love, I believed in anything that came my way connecting your way

On your part, you were miserable too,

reading long, lovely paragraphs of love, woven with sweetness and utmost care, beautifully shaped for you,

you must be clueless, you must be vulnerable and be in no condition of making decisions,

you thought being by my side was the better good,

but like every riddle, every step had consequences, a lap on the ladder scattered crumbs of prints all over my body, and your body,

I wasn't strong then, so were you, I feel weak now knowing that I wasn't strong,

for you, the wave have taken a rift, I still am rifting with drift,

for you, moon at noon and sky without stars is aptly acceptable,

but I am attached to the moon and stars, I didn't know that it would last even this fall.
