Loner

He said I'm a loner

She smiled and replied

You are indeed my heart owner

Again denying he blamed himself

You are just afraid of yourself

Amazing and good human being you are

Beauty is not what you see

But it should be felt

Everyone hates me he declared

Jealous they are!Confidently she said

Stop looking at the darker side

One day positive sun stroke will hit your life

Then you'll start looking at the things wisely

The the glass is half full you'll say surprisingly

Then start living your happy life

But in your bad days don't forget I'm just by your side

Hugging her he started to cry

Promise me you'll always be there he whined

Days went Years passed

Climbing his ladder of success
He forgot his past

Finally, I'm a HOD he exclaimed

Yeah but she'll be always my first preference

Shivering hands found the keys

Driving all the way he couldn't tell how excited was he.

At last he reached towards the destination

Proudly he stood by her side

His mother's grave was for what he travelled a mile.
