For the love of pain

Love and I
Walked together miles
Until we hit the daunting road
Only to bid adieu n goodbyes
Not even a single attempt to togetherness
I smiled with concealed grief
A gulf of unknowingness around
As love disappeared into the dark
Lost alone with no companion
While I wept in solitude
I looked around as it chuckled
It was the pain smiling at me
As I let it into my world
The pain cared for me lavishly
Unlike the ruthless love
That had betrayed me
We hung together for long
Clutching onto each other
With no wall of expectation
We were lost into each other entirely
And just when there felt a surety
That I had gathered from the setback
Love tried to invade again
Yet again to pull me apart
I saw the pain looking at me
Wearing the same smile it always did
Not bearing any questions in it's eyes
Letting me choose the side I wanted to be
How could I leave my dear pain
We had learned to grow into each other
Even if I did so
I would be no indifferent than a betrayer
At last I let the love pass by
With a huge sigh of relief
I had found an eternal bliss
In pain I had found my peace.

And he was gone!

Not sooner than any later
A never-before realization
Beginning to learn what she wanted
Was never really that far
Unless the time hadn't played on her
Did she not deserve to know any earlier
While the destiny watched it all happen
So did an audience of her own emotions
Hiding beneath the surface
At last made its way
She felt tempted to unveil
The piece her fate was holding ahead
Happy to have realized
Yet prone to anxiety
What if it was all rootless
What if this stream was now only flowing one side
Her fear finally creeped in
Reminding of the time she had lost
Will she dive into an ocean of affection
Or drown deep in the pool of regrets
Finally she dared to turn around
To the moment she had left behind
Except to step closer to another realization
The moment was gone
He was gone!
