To A Past Lover...

After such, long a talk, You said “no” to me. With no proper reason That I could see. I told you every truth, Lied not even once. Yet you said “no” so simply, As if in a wild trance. Was all that only fun? (Though I don’t feel it so !) Was all that one silly joke? Am I needed no more? OK, very well then. I shall show you soon. A new lover, a new friend. Seeing whom, you’ll fall in a swoon.

A person better than you Whose love shall know no bound… A person who, to get my love, Shall turn the world around. But if you come back ever And say, “Sorry” to me. And say once that you love me, I will come back to thee. *********************************************** *********************************************** **************
