Do you think you're the only one in pain?

If I were you, I wouldn't have gone down that lane.

How many times do I've to tell you?

I feel immense pain, too.


Why do you hide your pain from me?

Do you think I love the happy you only?

How many times do I've to tell you?

I love you for your broken self, too.


Why do you feel like being artificial?

Do you think I'm that shallow or mental?

How many times do I have to say it?

I know you're not perfect and I love you despite it.


I don't want you to hide your pain from me,

I want your pain to merge it with mine to create something beautiful to see.

I want you to know I'm not in love with who you're going to be,

Rather I'm in love with the beautifully broken man right in front of me.
