Hey Love

I will keep it short but it could be bittersweet

Maybe shorter than a rant but longer than a tweet.

Oh the format doesn't matter as you've been on my mind for far too long 

In my head, occupying space, like my favourite theme song.


But unlike that song, you are present before me

Charming, with those boyish eyes, setting me free

Now why should I apologize for falling for you?

So I'm not sorry love, for having loved you


Believe me I did try to reason with it

Gave myself a hard time for liking you to begin with 

I said to myself, 'this is going to pass

Just let the flaws appear resulting in an impasse.'


A day after another, time went by

I breathed you in more enjoying the high

Then your flaws came forth and I looked at my feet

And they continued towards you, like a one way street!


Shocked at being overpowered, I cursed my heart

As my brain knows this is destined to fall apart

There is nothing I can do, said the blood pumping beat

You can curse all you want but now there is no retreat


Deceived and cheated by my own emotions

They said so much though remained unspoken

And as I came to terms with this act of treason

You smiled and winked, stripping my will down along with all my reason


I have finally given in, as there is no escape now

You promised me nothing and I never asked for any vow

All I know, is that I love you like I have never before

And I'll take what I get, even if it's nothing more.
