SHE CAME BY

I trusted her,

I trusted our friendship.

I trusted myself,

And the world.

She gave warmth,

Love and confidence.

She herself confided in me,

Yet, I don’t know what went wrong.

She taught me to believe in myself,

As she opened the doors of truth,

And light and faith came on the way

I tried to see the world in her way

Right, left, north, south, east and west.

I tried and searched, and even accomplished

Yet she told me I was silly.

The world’s reality was a myth,

Our life was the perfect fairy-tale.

But was the blissful tale ever-ending?

I didn’t know.

When my wings were almost ready,

She came and chopped them off.

I tried to perceive the reason,

But, she gave me no chance.

Sometimes, I feel maybe I was wrong,

Other times I know it was not my fault.

Either way, who knows what she thinks,

And who cares…
