By-Sakshi
I still remember when I met you that night
You told me you love me but that was a lie
I could feel your touch being different that time
But I stayed shut ’cause I wasn’t ready to say goodbye
‘Why I fell for you’ was my only afterthought
My mind kept looking for reasons for all that time
Midnight you looked in my eyes and asked, “you alright?”
I held you, wiped silently ’cause I knew I am not anymore your prime
I was the fool searching for reasons when there were none
You were the best thing ever that happened to me
There’s no doubt left that I thought you were the one
Morning comes; you were leaving since it’s all done
Now you’ve vanished like bodies after cremation
Gone yet you are there in my imagination
But yeah you left, leaving me to feel this evil desertion
I am a mess hope this will give you satisfaction
