Last time he saw her
He lost track of time
Falling head over heels
Every time
Unfazed, Unloved
His emotions were rampant
She never paid heed
He could only lament
He tried in vain
Without any luck!
For this fair lady,
He was a speck of dust
This time he saw her
Towards him she rushed
Yearning for him
She smiled and blushed
He nodded and realized
What a fool he had been
So mean she had been
And; without any remorse
He left the scene

Oh no... I have a feeling that she missed the opportunity... being mean will never solve anything.
ReplyDeleteYes it is important to respect one's feeling and understand the value of a person! Sometimes it is too little, to late...
DeleteHa ha ha, what a twist in the end!
ReplyDeleteYes, you can call it 'Karma'!
DeleteNice, love the third stanza.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much fr liking!
DeleteThis makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why is that so!?
Delete"Why!?" I had to type it because I actually squealed it aloud. I wonder if he would have discovered something wondrous had he stayed to explore the new happenings... Then again, only he knows what her former behavior did to him.
ReplyDeleteWhat an ending.
I know! But life is not fair and sometimes we get only one chance... She lost the opportunity once, and when he left she understood how much he adored her. It was quite possible that by giving her a chance, he would not be left with any self respect! To fall in one's own eye is not love, but degradation...
DeleteSo he took his revenge by not returning her affection. One part says rightly served, other says may be he should have engaged. People change. No point in holding grudge.
ReplyDeleteMay be its not revenge but Karma! Life is not the same, people change but so do situations. She might have changed but he might have been in a different situation altogether...
DeleteNice poem! And good comeback.
