Unrequited love leaves a void, they say
May be, it does. For long enough.
But then there are things that fill the chasm
The books that you can’t read together
The movies that you don’t watch together
The sunrises that don’t wake you up together
The days that don’t lead to sunsets together
The words that ache and die on your lips
The love that squirms in your heart
The kisses that quiver on your lips
The tears that catch in your throat
All create blocks of shadows that go and die in that void
All melt and pour into that abyss
Till it closes up and moulds shut your heart.
Unrequited love leaves a void they say.
May be it does, for long enough
But have a heart, because, not forever.
