Love

One says,'Love is trouble,'

While another claims, 'love is incredible,'

The truth is,

Love is both,

A happy dream and an ugly nightmare.

A heart puffed up by bliss,

Slowly turns into a heart broken to bits.

Love is when everything seems just perfect

When you see butterflies flapping merrily everywhere

When you start believing in 'happily ever after',

When the gusto in the air wraps you round, binds you to forevermore happiness,

It all seems like a fairytale that has no end.

You wanna live forever like this.

You wanna love that one person with everything you ever have

You dare want this stream of bliss to cease flowing into you,

Makin' you drown into the ripples of ecstasy,

You feel like you have ample oxygen to sustain your breath for life

You are in the seventh heaven, and you are as happy as the birds singing ,

You fear change. You fear change. Change of this beautiful life.

When something happens.

The fear you used to dread most manifests itself as the reality,

The reason behind your ecstasy, the one hidden in your smile, the dweller of your heart,

Leaves. Just leaves. Without any prior warning.

You're shooed away, forlorn and broken.

By that one person,

Who had once lit all candles in all the dim places in your soul,

Who had once filled in all empty gaps

But today,
Every ray of light has been dimmed
Every filled up void has again become unfilled.

By whom?
That one person.
