A letter to my ex.

Dear ex,

From my best friend to strangers,
That's how long it took for us to realize that some things don't last forever. We were ALMOST good enough. Almost.
You were not like the others, you did care for me. We were building seven wonders and were lost while making the sixth. A night in your apartment under the moonlight we got lost under that beautiful night. I still remember you picking up that call and leaving in a rush,
Funny, since then I never heard your hush.

Free

We've gone through the darkest,
We've made the furthest,
Standing on different grounds,
Society calls us tabu,
Love has no name,
Living away from all the fame,
Where things can burn,
In the colors of green,
Where borders meet,
We lay under an endless sheet,
As we were born to be,
Free.

~Mansi Gupta

Another year

The clocks ticked,
Memories were clicked,
Love spread all over,
No one was sober,
Pages turned,
Lessons learned,
Another year,
To overcome your fears,
To fight those tears.
~Mansi Gupta

Goodbye

Staring at a mirror,
Tears rolling down my eye,
Fist clenched,
My room was a mess,
A photo of us,
It wasn't just,
You left too soon,
For me to say goodbye,
And now you became a part of the infinite sky.

~Mansi Gupta.

At the end

I lay alone,
This doesn't feel like home,
A daily routine,
You by my side,
Doesn't make me feel alive,
My beats on a screen,
Hands held,
Love was not dead,
It just lasted for the hours you fed.

~Mansi Gupta.

Prison

I was staring,
At what you had become,
My hands weren't tied,
Yet, every part of me died,
A regular deal,
After every meal,
My dress,
A complete mess,
Broken glass,
Fallen mask,
Years of pain,
Such a shame,
A weapon,
A key to my prison.
~Mansi Gupta

Knight

When you feel that blow,
You come to know,
The difference,
A smile on your face,
A different chase,
Blinded,
Bright lights,
A feeling of right,
Because you've found,
Your knight,
For the darkest of night.
~Mansi Gupta.
