Being a writer comes with its pitfalls.
A person's entry and exit into our lives turn into words.I promised myself I wouldn't write about you.
It seems as if all my works are tales of people who walked out of my life.
I never wished it would be the same with you.I never wished sadness would dawn upon us,
That your exit would follow soon.But I guess after all I am a mere writer,
with no control over fates twists and turns.So like every other person you eventually walked away,
Leaving a shriveled, broken heart behind.The broken heart had a strong will,
Determined to keep its promise.A long struggle followed,
The broken heart trying to defy its nature,
Trying not to unleash its pain,
Trying not to turn you into a genesis of its melancholy.Alas, the broken heart was proven weak,
It broke its promise.
It shaped you into another one of its stories.- Simraan Bedekar
