Reciprocate Love!

 

I loved you the whole day,
You loved me only in moments.

I loved you with all my heart,
You only loved me in parts.

I engaged you in deep conversations,
You only replied me in monosyllables.

I gave you a permanent home,
You used it as a temporary shelter.

You warmed me up
And then left me.
Now I am burning
In this love,
Slowly like an incense.

And I witnessed now,
Your present,
Your absence,
Your arrival,
Your departure,
Still I’m here
Breathing-living,
Trusting my own strength
When you will come back again.
