The Requital

By Yusra Fatima 

 

Oh my dear, we used to be friends!
The beam you had on your face,
While I was the one with teary eyes
With a heart full of disgrace.

I did expect betrayal,
But not from the person with whom I shared my secrets!
And now if I think of it,
My tongue is full of regrets.

You made me lose my self-respect!
When I looked in the mirror,
Oh, the deep sorrow I had for myself!

But I gathered every sorrow,
And hid them in the pieces of puzzles.

Till you realized the game,
It was too late!

You had nothing left,
When I got blessed.

I took my requital, and you were astonished
Because the story had a twist you missed.

Oh my dear, we used to be friends!
The beam I had on my face,
While you were the one with teary eyes,
With a heart full of disgrace!
