Her fake smile, my fake attitude
Sincerity at stake, I entrust soul and spirit unto
her.
Integrity in play, I set sail alongside this true
lady’s shores.
An unimaginable honesty to give, I bring this woman
into my midst.
With passionate vision, our love story finds newer
horizons to adore.
Time goes by, we get used to our capricious
attitudes…
Time goes by, we have something painful to live
with—daily.
Time flies by, we find something truly admirable in
our habits.
Time flies by, we observe that we are getting used
to our vices.
Love and laughter were the first aspirations that
struck our souls.
Love and trustworthiness were the other ‘keys’
drawing us near to each other.
Love and sincerity made us who we were meant to be.
Love and blessed feelings were the riches that
rekindled our sorrows and sadness.
Time showed us the way as we found something really
nasty that came along.
Time flew vividly, we found sorrowful instances
coming into our lives again.
Lies were inexistent in our love story, yet strange
and weird moments happened.
Lies were neither told nor heard, yet we sensed some
strange melancholy.
A fake smile emerged from her face on one
unpredictable day.
A fake expression on her face made me feel unloved
and unwanted.
Fake attitudes began to show themselves in my
attitudes and behaviour.
Unwanted pretentious behaviour gave rise to unneeded
upheavals.
On one bright day, I tell myself: “This shouldn’t
happen to us…
This can’t happen to us. Not in this lifetime. Not
to our love story. Not again.”
Setting assail once again on this new stormy
weather, I applaud our true story.
Setting new goals by bringing new meanings to our
story, I feel inspired.
Her fake smile eventually fades. My fake attitudes
diminish.
My fake habits find some tiny fragrances of
optimism.
Newer meanings shatter our fake smiles, embracing
prospective onsets.
Gradually, slowly, eventually, life finds brilliant
significances.
