FLYING UMBRELLAS!


It was about this time last year, 
When the windy harmattan haze,
Swept you off the ground, 
and left you at the mercy of the whirlwind. 
Then In a sensational move that 
Brought you across my path, 
You settled, giving me that inviting smile 
I knew you did that for a reason.

True to your erratic, unstable self 
I was oblivious of, 
You coughed up every mildew of lie 
Etched in your soul, 
Professing love like it never happened 
Soon you taught me a lesson I will never forget.

Like the Prince Charming of the ball, 
You asked to marry me, 
I was elated 
Yet something told me it was hoax 
My soul felt it. 
The happy ending that died at it's birth.

You raped my hopes then, 
And left your anxiety soaked thorn 
Right at the middle of my energy, I dissipated 
My blanket burned from the tears 
That were overwhelmed 
with the fire of troubling thoughts 
But I forgive you for that!.

Just letting you know 
December struck twice, 
And in it's usual fashion 
Swept me to another man's path 
He loves too much, ungrateful me! 
Now we're threading our destinies 
Love never felt so light, so easy.

Like the past n'er happened 
Our hues Intertwined, and we weaved our paths. 
Like we were born to do this, 
The most beautiful pastel of love 
He loves me to the core of his bones 
I can't get him off my mind, too.
