The Chocolate Cake

The first chocolate cake you remember-
The one I brought for you...
I baked it with so much love,
Glazed it with dark chocolate,
As dense as my affection for you.
Next morning with a tensed move,
I went up to your place,
Pacing to and fro...
You said with your eyes:
"Keep it on the table."
And then you said you enjoyed it-
Even shared it with friends.
Then came cakes two three four...
They dont exite you anymore.
Though the second one -
You were not ready to share with anyone.
The second last and the last...
Brother's day and bidding goodbye-
I poured in my love,
A little bit more.
Now as you are gone,
I can't bake for you. 
But with every cake in the oven,
You peep into my mind.
My heart skips a beat...
Oh my dear Annan loves
cake to eat.
