atharv shrivastava Poet Rhyme

I Dont love you anymore

I don't love you anymore.

Is it a lie? Who knows?
The truth is,
we don't pluck the flowers we adore.

So I say,
"I don't love you anymore."

I keep waiting at your door.
Not because I expect you to open it,
but because leaving
would feel more like goodbye.

So I say,
"I don't love you anymore."

I tell everyone
I've forgotten you.
Maybe one day
I'll believe it too.

"I don't love you anymore,"

I whisper,
standing at the seashore.
