The Irony ✨

Wondering Why ✨

Charismatic, Young with a queer sense of style,
I was captivated by his flawless smile,
He called me his Lily of the Nile,
in a matter of days, I was walking down the aisle,

He promised to take me afar,
blinded me with fancy jewelry and classic cars,
Every night took me to a new expensive bar,
along with the moon, promised to get me all the stars,

Then with the swish and a flick by the wand of dark magic,
Like every cliché, even my story turned tragic,
for hours, we would argue for no reason, with no logic
from being his reason for existence, I became utterly pathetic,

To make it work God knows I tried,
for another chance I cried,
to constant begging, I lost my pride,
in the midst of this, something inside me died,

I thought the seed of reconciliation has been sown,
Until I woke-up in my bed alone,
all of his belongings, including my heart and hope, were gone,
No last letter, no sticky note, He left me for reasons unknown,

As my world went from peace to pieces,
society claimed that my character probably had creases,
calculated sympathy was imparted by aunts, uncles and their nieces,
I wondered if this pain of rejection ever ceases,

For a new reason every day, I felt ashamed,
No matter how many times I explained,
My clothes of honor were permanently stained,
From days to months to years, nothing really changed,

In order to find the cure to my never ending pain,
With the same luggage, I changed my train,
Clean slate was what I aimed to gain,
Get rid of society’s rusty, painful and bloodied chain,

To be better and stronger, every day I try,
In front of the world, for answers I no more pry,
but in the middle of the night, I still cry,
remembering it all, and wondering why.
