Love Was

Love was,

When you messaged me

That time,

Late, at two in the night and

I replied you instantly.

When you did not buy

The brown colored shirt,

As it was not my choice.

Love was,

When my face smiled

At every mention of you.

When my dreams covered

Only pictures of you.

Love was,

When you got yourself

Drenched, waiting for me,

In the rain.

And greeted me with a

Smile, when I reached

An hour late.

Love was,

When we shared our

Sorrows and grief,

And phoned up, to stop

A tear in each other’s eye.

Love was,

When I narrated the recipe

Of making a dish for

Dinner on phone, and you

Ate it all,

Even when it was burnt.

It was love,

When I saw you

Every time I closed my eyes.

When I prayed to God

And wished happiness for you.

It was love everywhere,

When a mention of you

Delighted my days

And a sight of you

Captured my heart

In every way.

It is love today

When I still wait for you.

When I still wish for

Happiness to surround you.

When your one single

Thought makes me smile,

And every mention of you

Brightens up

My day, even today.
