ETERNAL LOVE

Once, together we strolled on the beach

Our imprints deep into the sand when

A wave arrived.

Hand in hand, ensuring your presence

I depress further through the grains

Against the strongest of the tides

To portrait our eternal love.

I look at your casual leisurely walk

Sweeping the grains in entire direction

I dreaded would you do that to me too?

And soon you declared your freedom.

Crumpled me like an old parchment

Left to the mercy of worthless bins

Who could now smoothen out the crumples?

You’ve closed the doors for everyone!

Left me broke, to repent over my foolishness

I decided to love who, but you

Tried to live a million moments with you

I should have seen how could I not?

That you were the one to slice me once

Chop me twice, mince me over several times

You froze my glass heart into a thousand pieces

The echo can still be heard reverberating.

And now,

I’m to the showers I drown my sorrows into

I’m to the moon that wipes my tears

I’m unaware of the world you met me in

I’m still holding the fragments of my core

And they still give out a faint glow

Of hope, that died back a million years ago.
