How does your heart break? When does your heart ache? What causes an earthquake? (No short stories please)
I d e a
It wasnt you;
but the idea
of you
I was
in l o v e
with,
Immensely,
Deeply,
Foolishly.
Its not your fault,
really.
you must have tried to
live up to that
‘Idea’.
Oh, but one day
That day,
You finally got tired.
You saw her
Ah, and you thought
you could be yourself
with her:
Broken,
Crooked,
Cruel.
Because
She didn’t have
an ‘Idea’
of you,
lingering in her head.
So now,
you could rewrite
the whole book;
a new book.
and you started writing,
day and night
in and out,
with her.
And just like that
you became a
good writer;
you wrote volumes
with changed characters,
and altered plots.
Writers are
infact loyal
to their
lies.
