Notes About The Poem

EPIPHANY

    I swam and sank in your love 
    with my earnest yearnings. 
    I surrendered myself on devotion and
    dedication. It wasn't  an infatuation,
     but a genuine emerald emotion . 
      I was foolish to believe that 
     you were also in love with me.
     I didn't feel that you were only generous 
      and compassionate to me.
     I was drinking dreamy desires. 
   When You walked, realisation flashed. 
    I might not deserve your reciprocation.

    Epiphany : the joy of love falls short 
      while a lifelong ache lasts ••
