LOVE DID TRIUMPH

He sat in the verandah, sniffing the petrichor, 

The eyes watery, weeping softly,

Then his tears camouflaged with rains

Broken, the heart tormented,

Who thought love could destroy him,

The alluring feeling was his new foe

Emotionally shattered, lying in lone

Not one did ask how he was

Assuming men don't wail

They told him to be a man

But all he needed was a warm hug

Manifesting emotions can't make someone frail

Instead isn't it glory in grief?

She betrayed, he suffered

As the rains, was pure his love,

But their bond then froze like the ice

Then cracked, broke, perished

He still being infatuated towards her,

Reminisced them in one frame,

Her tender smile was his satisfaction,

The look she gave had always made him blush

The rains paused, clouds like people 

Sooner or later going apart

Came the sun, bringing glimmer in his eyes

He did forgive her but couldn't ever forgive her

His love did triumph not his ego!
