Unrequited Love: The Pain of Shared Passions...

If you loved everything I loved, why not me?

By Lily๐Ÿ’œ Published 2 years ago โ€ข 1 min read

Sugary moon, lady moon...

You melted upon sight...

Why is there no peace, there is no peace without you...

The mind is like cool water, my lady...

Your eyes set it aflame...

Burning the forest of my life...

You dried it out, cruel lady...

Eyes that sang poetry...

Hands that spoke of love...

In the end, it was all lies...

Can my tender heart bear this...

Love is like a god...

It can only be felt, it has no form...

A wounded heart is like a child...

Silently crying, with no words to say...

My dear, I stored all your smiles...

Deep in my heart...

My love, all your smiles...

Have melted into tears...

Were your white smiles a mistake...

Or was losing myself in them my mistake...

Was it your fault to leave...

Or my fault to understand...

A man's tears flow into a woman's heart...

Is it not flesh but a wall of stone...

Eyes that sang poetry...

Hands that spoke of love...

In the end, it was all lies...

Can my tender heart bear this...

In the November rain...

I said I would get wet...

You said you loved getting wet too...

In the moonlight on the terrace...

I said I would bathe...

You said you loved that bath too...

Eyes closed like a Buddha statue...

I said I loved it in my dreams...

Without any hesitation, you said...

You loved it too...

If you loved everything I loved...

Why did you not love me...
