A Heart That Love Forgot

They say love cures everything

I nod in confusion

Because never have I been touched

By such a beautiful thing,

I loved Darcy and crushed on Jerry Magurie

I dreamt Cedric Diggory holding me in the Yule ball,

I ignored my school crush, wishing he would see me

I don't have my love story to tell you all,

I look at the guy holding his partner's hands

And feel the warm of the grip in my heart

If I could shiver at the sight of love, they why

There is no trace of love, nowhere in my life taken piece by piece apart,

Does the love-making burn like the bonafire of a beachside campfire,

Does that touch mean something more,

I ask the lover, I am an emotional wreck,

Because I am a fool wondering standing in passion's shore

I would marry only for love, I once declared

Ignoring the eye-rolls and the snide smiles

Don't you dare, the right one will come I snared

Chasing me to the end of earth and rescue me from my mind's isle

Independent yes I am, and a fighter that too

But the wailings of my heart are louder today

What to do, how to heal - I have no clue

I wipe my tears, and pray my heart to shut up and obey

The night Goddess nods at my misery,

And blesses me with sleep..

Thinking she cured a yet another heart's injury

But in the silence, it continues to weep.
