First HeartBreak

Priyanshu Sharma

 In a far away universe,
 Even Cupid and Venus would have wept,
 Witnessing how pristine my love is for you
 And how much I've endured
 Knives to my heart,
 Me falling off the sky,
 Bombs to the mind,
 But amidst it all
 This love has remained unwavering.
 
 In a far away universe,
 Even Cupid and Venus would have argued to the Lords to land on this Earth,
 To comfort me,
 Seeing how immaculate my love is for you.
 Sharing and caring is one thing
 But to love like a man is another.
 The mind may be right,
 But the heart never goes wrong
 Try to keep my mind open,
 But keeping the mind open doesn't
 Shut out the heart.
 I may be bone-headed
 And my faith preposterous
 But what is love if it doesn't have some foolishness?
 
 In a far away universe,
 Even Cupid and Venus would have felt proud,
 Witnessing a true lover,
 A person who still believes in the magic of love
 And moreover in the sanctity of it
 In a world where love and its ideals are crumbling down.

In a far away universe,
 Even Cupid and Venus will weep,
 For they know that
 My life is like a Shooting Star
 Here today and gone tomorrow
 But the glaze of it signifies my love
 Which will forever be etched in their memory.
