He never wanted to
Fall for anyone
But fate had
The last laugh.
From being a friend
To a someone special
He couldn't guess
What went so wrong!
But love is nefarious
Its consequences are deceptive
He felt something ineffable
Something ethereal.
Love is an addiction
Its rewards are selling
And the euphoric illusions
The idea is quite compelling.
They had a good run
Until she came to know
She just had an infatuation
And she let everything go.
Walked out like it was nothing
She left him all alone
All he could do was wonder
What went so wrong!
Broken hearts don't heal
Scars are left all over them
The only plausible option
Seems to create walls around them.
Barricading himself
From all emotions and pain
He stopped involving himself
Too scared to get hurt again.
For too long
He kept himself
Within the walls
He had created.
Two years had gone
Too much time had been wasted
"I won't ever love again"
He had committed.
But life is playful
It plays with souls
Moving on with his life
He broke the walls.
For an ephemeral moment
He let his guard down.
All his hatred wasted
A new crush he had found.
Desires and logic
Are overlooked
When your heart
Is hooked.
Cursing himself
For the mistake
He was disappointed
In his own self.
Consoling himself
He decided
"It's just a
Hopeless limerence"
Later, it dawned on him
Like an epiphany
That like a lone wolf
Solitude is his companion.
Love is not for everyone
It's not radical, it's unbiased
It's a struggle.
He struggled for love.
First,
To get it.
The other time,
To get over it.
