I Fell In Love Only To Rise Again

I woke up in the morning with so much on my mind

Running late to work, leaving everything behind

Endless meetings and tight deadlines have taken a toll on me

I now fail to find my goal in this monotonous journey

I finally took a sigh and booked a cab to Cyber City

Headed to our old lunch cafe - simple yet pretty

I see you already waiting, playing something on your phone

I am amazed by the fact that you totally love being alone

I started gibbering about the stupid meaningless rat race

You sit there listening with a huge smile on your face

It seems amazing how you are too good to be true

I realized how all this while I had failed to understand my love for you 

I woke up in the morning with so much on my mind

But this time, it wasn't work, it was our beautiful time

I smiled, jumped and danced alone in my room

The Cupid had struck and love had finally bloomed

Now the work meetings seemed even longer than usual

I wanted to be with you, wishing this feeling was mutual

As soon as I met you, I told you how I have been feeling since the past few days

You were listening as usual, but this time with no smile on your face

You spoke the harsh truth that I never wanted to hear

Everything seemed shattered and it was too much to bear

You left the cafe only to never return

Perhaps, you never understood me was something I had to learn

I woke up in the morning with so much on my mind

Crying all night, I wanted this chaos to unwind

But it all felt useless, now that I lost a person who felt like home

It all made sense now how you used to love being alone

I feel shattered but I know I will be fine

I can't ruin everything for someone who couldn't be mine

I grab my bag and head towards my workplace

This time hiding my tears and faking a smile on my dull face

I had to be strong so I gathered courage to be the woman I always wanted to be

I will again fall in love but this time with someone who needs it the most- Me!
