Just a boy and a girl.
Found beyond the limelight.
Skewed by a tragic caste;
Patriarchal minds landing in between.
Could it be an exception to the rules?
Time slows without this basic human need.
Part of the mind lost in translation.
Images growing every year, an overhaul of the past.
Nothing is guaranteed, but worth the risk.
Reserve seats in the life, waiting.
Just a woman and a man.
