The Gospel Truth


Up, she sits and ponders
What had happened
In a moment everything
Seems to get altered.

I watch with amusement
Her eyes filled with
Fresh love from the factory
Yet to be baked.

Up, she sits and thinks
What nourishes me,
Also destroys me
You were so close yesterday
But today, I don’t see you anymore.

I still watch her with amusement
Much more amusement
Like a little child who opens his eyes.
Her eyes now, wide open
Only to accept the harsh reality.

Up she sits and wonders
Is this is what I had expected?
Why did you change?
I would have waited for you
No matter what
If this is all you wanted.

I keep on watching her
This time a sense of responsibility
Sunks in within.
I approach her
Can I help you?

Her gleaming honest eyes
Stares at mine for a moment
What do you know about heartbreak?
She says softly.

Her two teardrops make me realize
Huh, yes, what do I know about heartbreak?
My heart wasn’t broken
How could it?
I didn’t possess one.

Her lustrous voice said
You will help me?
A streak of stretching lips
Looked as if she smiled
Ok help me then
I am trying to get over with it.

Two self help books
Three parties, four flings
And whoosh! You`ll get over with it.
This is your medication.

Life is too short to ponder
Relationships may break at some step
Even when it is cemented with trust
Life is too short to cry
For a pure soul of yours
Only happiness should matter.

Everything happens for a cause
Only time lets us know about it
After every sunset, there is sunrise
After every winter, there is summer

Hope, my friend is the gospel truth
It comes in different vouchers
Can be redeemed only at select counters
Because conditions now here apply
But only to be happy.
