Love Consumes

/Oh! dear girlie, I collected the letter you threw away, You called me a nut, You called me insane, I came after you and you rejected me, You raised your eye-brows, Later you consented after much delay, You intransigence did not deter me, I accepted you wholeheartedly, You later decided to jilt me, In preference to a stranger; You threw me out like garbage, My loving mind is paining, Do you think that my love for you, Is mere pretense? My dream garden is withering away, Like a flower plant left without water, My only option is to bid you farewell, And wither away!!?/.
