Losing to Win
I lost you the moment I won you,
Coz you are not ME,
You belong to yourself,
You think like yourself,
You speak like yourself,
You sing like yourself,
You dance like yourself,
You laugh like yourself,
You cry like yourself,
You live for yourself…
You are not mine…
For me, it’s fine…
Coz I love to stay with you,
Battle of opinions, I love to play with you…
Why twinning every time?
Thinking differently is not a crime…
For you, I enjoy being an oxymoron,
Let someday, minds go similar on their own…
Let the temperatures rise frequently,
Enjoy the cooldown laugh subsequently…
Remember the softness of leaves,
They never complained about the brown bark…
Coz they knew the roughness and strength were needed…
To stand still in the stormy dark…
Even the bark didn’t ever say…
You weak little leaf, here just to sway,
Coz softness is needed to breathe,
To provide you calmness, the shade beneath…
So now again…
I am not YOU,
I belong to myself,
I think like myself,
I speak like myself,
I sing like myself,
I dance like myself,
I laugh like myself,
I cry like myself,
I live for myself…
I am not yours…
Is it fine for you?
See, I want to reveal,
This is how I deal,
Coz we know each other,
Convincing, why would we bother?
But, does this mean I refrain to argue?
You are also not hating it, are you?
I can accept everything,
You cannot be a complete human being,
But all I fear is that one monster,
Who might someday come,
Stop me from apologizing,
From remembering that,
Story of our sorry,
Simultaneous existence,
Of rival and worry,
It will make us forget everything,
And question… why not a complete human being?
It will not allow the good morning greet,
Wait…Why did we even meet…
After accepting you from head to toe,
I don’t want to hear that,
Therefore…
Hold my hand and promise,
You will never get that in your head,
You will once turn back and see me staring…
You will soon discover; I am still caring…
Go on your knees,
With words, in your ease…
Tell me, “I still love you” …
I might ask, why would YOU let go…
“There is no place for EGO”
I might give a confused expression,
Waiting for your explanation,
Say, “Coz I know you very well,
You would think something and won’t tell"
With a wicked smile, add further…
Keeping your hand on my shoulder
“You see, you are still immature to understand this stuff...you need me...!!"
