Philophobia

After three solid months of assumed relationship
She said it has all been because
She does not want to lose the friendship
“I never loved you”
Was what she said that afternoon
Immediately I could no longer hold a spoon
Thank God I was not close to a pool


All she said was “I need a break”
But I forgot to ask her long or short?
Waited a whole year
Maybe break will be over tomorrow

“Please wait for me till after my exams”
Was the last thing she romantically said
And like a well-fed
Sat down by my bed
Waiting for my love bird
Maybe she will be done with her exams tomorrow

“I  will be thinking about it”
She said blushing
Except she will finish thinking about it tomorrow

“I am not the best for you”
Like seriously?
That was what she also said

Oh! Love!
Can I ever fall into you again?
The journey to your abode is too tedious
And for that I give up on you
For I have developed love apathy
Because I am now suffering from Philophobia
