Is it enough?

It is not enough when you like each other, but how you blend & become one.

How you get to know each other in & out, your likes & dislikes known, your dark side is their entertainment & their sweetness is annoying.

How little things remind you of them and you want to protect them from even harmful words.

When you are you and he/she is he/she, -  transparent where the past lies where it needs to, flaws are accepted, love is brought to the limelight and above all how they treat you in private & in front of the world marks no difference & how you feel with them…

now, is everything still enough?

He told me

He told me he is weak inside,
Fragile as a butterfly wing;
He told me he is numb outside,
Thick-skinned so he believes only in flings.
He told me he's been hurt too many times,
And made his ego his pride.
He told me he will heal himself for years to come,
Be his own guide.
He staged a beautiful aura to the world,
Died within with every word;
He was applauded at every step,
His wounds healed at all depths;
But he had become an actor of life...
A slave of his own pride!
He met a woman,
Just like him...
Aching, detached, self - centred, show biz addict,
They fooled the world together,
But she fell and hit the clear...
"Do you love me?", she asked
He took off his mask.
She ran as if she had seen an ugly - damaged, bleeding and angry wolf.
He wouldn't stop personifying...
I lit a scented candle with a smile,
Saying goodbye to all his lies.
