Five years ago

Five years ago,
I was five years younger
I had the glow of a freshly wedded bride
Like a peacock,
I wore all the pride.
I sure had made it in life!

Five years ago,
I was five times happier.
Five of my friends believed I was their relationship idol
Maybe because they were a little idle
But five years ago as well,
I knew no sorrow
I believed I was hit by Cupid's arrow
Oh how like the stars,
I had all the glow and twinkle.

Five years ago
Oh five years ago!
Had the heavens hugged me right,
I wouldn't have been too blind to see the light...
I wouldn't have rushed everything for anything
I wouldn't have given you a chance,
But curse the devil that hovers!

Five years ago,
For you ,
I believed all the little talks that the women had were nothing but stereotypes
Deep down,
I believed in the goodness of my type!

It's five years later and I'm soaked in tears!
Each night surrounded by my fears.
Each morning I actually cry to the heavens...
How badly I need a hug that could soothe my pain!
Each afternoon I'm haunted by hallucinations
Day by day,
Regret engulfs my heart..
If only I had listened
I wouldn't have to bear the hefty burden of violence!
I wouldn't have to wake to yet more soars and warts...
No, I would have been somewhere in the globe working upon my glow like my peers!
