The Shattered

love is not blind,

Love is not jealous,

Love can stand the test of time,

and so on goes the sayings..

But when love is expressed

beyond the needs of the

situation...situation is

created....

It slowly shows signs and

delivers poison doses...

It starts to kill...

A slow bleeding death...

The heart which was once

filled with immense trust,

happiness tends to kill

oneself...

They say distance makes

the hearts grow fonder...

Pretty true mostly..

But when ta distances

tends to show up

alongside loneliness n

unwanted thoughts...

Infidelity follows

alongwith arguments,

allegations, issues...

making way for hatred to

take the center stage...

And the love which once

stood firm, unshaken on

trust...continues to show

its fragility....

The promises broken...

Love becomes a distant

past.......
