I fell in love with his alluring eyes,
I fell in love with his charming smile!!
I fell in love with his child-like innocence,
i fell in love with his wisdom!
i fell in love with his very presence... I have bunked classes to catch his glimpse...
I have stood in the corridor just to see him pass by....
I would sit in the crowd to see him win debates...
I would laugh out loud on every joke he cracked...
In return i never asked for more....
As it was me who was falling for him more and more...
Every time he looked at me, it would brighten up my day....
Every time he came and talked, i discovered magic in his words..
Over the years distance grew us apart,
I was pretty sure our paths will once again cross...
but this time was a little different, he had found someone
while i was trying hard to move on....
I would still find reasons to see him,
I would still go mad on seeing him.
I would cry my heart out, thinking he was never in my destiny...
my days and nights were soaked in melancholy!
Love was an emotion never meant for me...
It was suffocating, it was toxic,
It was disheartening, it was depressing.
All i would do is hold up my feelings and lock it fiercly in my heart.!
But probably all the doors can be opened up eventually, you just need the right key!!
Someone had tried hard to pull me out of this shell....And how could I resist?
after all I too have been a doting lover....
Now this man makes me realize, love is not just the butterflies you get when you see him....love is the sense of fulfillment you get when he's with you!
Love is not just wishing to be together...it's actually being together through thick and thin...
Love is not a chase, it's all about touching the finishing line together!
How could I resist a person like that??
Who could not take his eyes off me!
who makes me feel the center of his world!!
Who wraps up himself around me when I'm shattered
The one who feels home!!
Because his love not just demands it fulfills...
He adores me the way I am- 'sheer, easy an naive..'
He makes me feel loved , he makes me feel wanted
He gives life to my dreams and makes me believe in fairytales!!
Perhaps you sooner or later get the love you wish for...
And all that happens in between is LIFE!!
And I am never giving up on both.
Really nice….😊
