SEASONAL LOVE (SHE) part 1
She fell in love
With the luxury I could provide
Instead of the love I could not hide
When struck by misfortune tides
She was hurting inside
She fell in love
With my constant presence
Instead of self worth upon my presence
When the wages couldn’t come
She couldn’t comprehend my absence
She fell in love
With my fluctuating wisdom
Instead of what crowned wisdom
When she raised her standards
She couldn’t keep the love shining
She fell in love with my shadow
But when sunset hung low
She was a wandering lonely bird
Wishing the sun stayed above.
She fell in love
With my laggard truth
Instead of my actions
When time showed me doors
She fantasized to end of time
She fell in love
With my indented flowing accent
Instead of staying structured with trust
Then in epic of silent mood
She got consumed in the fading fire
She fell in love with herself
All her fatal flaws and infinite complexities
And only then she realised
She was worth every loving she gave away.
She fell in love
With her box
She was Pandora
But when she became impatient
Love for herself become her opposite
