An Unknown Depth

She tried her best not to look at him
But as usual his enticing gaze
Constantly drew her attention
And every time her eyes met his
Her heart throbbed like never before.
She has become a slave of her emotions.
And has naively allowed them to control her.
But this is poisoning her life slowly
And piercing her eyes to bleed
As nothing can she get from him
Other than an unlimited negligence.
His neglects have led to her sleepless nights
And a feeling of insecurity
That no one in this earth can love her.
Her jovial face is now like a dry, drooping rose.
And love seems to be a sinking ship to her
As her heart is tumbling into an unknown depth
A depth of solitude, a depth of loss.
She just can’t accept the fact
That he has no feelings left for her.
Sighing, she takes a sip of whisky
But her attempt to throw him out of her mind
Becomes futile again and again.
Instead she murmurs to herself
‘I will always love you, Sid’.
