Love....never was asked

He did not know happiness without her

He could only be happy with her

He felt lost and lonely when she wasn’t around

He couldn’t help but smile when she was around

He loved the sound of her laugh

He loved the birth mark on her neck

He loved the way she cried softly during movies in the theatre hall

He loved the sparkle that never left her eyeballs

While she,

She knew happiness even without him

She could be happy without him

She felt free and elated when he wasn’t around

A tinge of insecurity outlined her smile when he was around

She liked his voice but loved hers

She liked his honey colored hair but felt hers were better

She liked his crooked smile but could have never loved it

She liked his eyes but loved the face that was reflected from them

She never said she loved him

She always said-“We’re friends”

But as time passed

She did not act very much like one

He assumed she had fallen for him

But she hadn’t

He fell in love with her

But she didn’t

From the moment he saw her

He thought that she was the one

And it was until later

When he realized that she wasn’t

She kept saying-“We’re friends”

And he did not understand why?

As they did nothing of the sort as friends did

When he asked him she said frowning

“I do not want to be more than friends”

The answer to him seemed pretty dry

She broke up and said it was meant to be

He shouted, cried and hit an unknown street

There were many fish in the pond he thought

But none matched her elegance

She was special, he thought,

She was special, maybe, because he loved her

She adored him

She was fond of him

But with him she was just not sure

Of what she was sure with John

When he heard this he was shocked

She had never asked him to love

But he did anyways

He gave her all that he had

Even when she hadn’t asked

Now he is loathing in a corner

And she, living her life with another

I wonder whose fault is that.
