Love At First Night

I was 21 when I met you,

You painted my heart of pale grayish blue,

I remember the night how you entirely kissed me,

Our love was the best but full of uncertainty.

 

Ruthless crazy things were done in a cold sinful night,

Love in our first night was never really ought to be right.

We held each other’s hand out of that darkest wood,

Shameless kisses were given though our love was one doubly brood.

 

I did not know how those wrongful things seem to be righteous?

Our love was confused and treacherously so vicious.

I knew you were trouble when you came in to my life,

Those mistakable glasses are so wrong and rife.

 

I loved you so bad and that’s an endless fact,

Your hugs of unknown are immensely not tact.

I remember that date when we had everything,

We gazed up to stars and wish of everlasting.

 

I loved you so true when you utter mock words,

Your verses of sweetness aren’t ever but those gory swords.

We talked about us and agreed about list of musts,

I was childishly scared to do those things up until last.

 

You hated me, swore me and told me that I’m immature grown up,

You texted me, cussed me and finally decided to break it up.

Next days of my life were fearfully fragile,

Love was hopeless and obviously unreal.

 

I knew that you never ever loved me,

I was totally stupid and was so out of the sea.

So casually cruel in the name of being in love,

Every day was a joke and secretly cried it at a silent cove.

 

You left me in nowhere and never showed up,

I remember how love was so vague when we broke up.

You were a trouble in me for the last 2 years,

Discovering new me was trapped in small spheres.

 

I really wanted to blame this to God Almighty Himself,

Have no right to be peevish because it’s one test of self.

If I only knew that things would never turn out so right,

Guess I did not give myself up in that love at first night.
