The Last BBye (Part 1)

They had talked each day since forever,

One couldn’t live without the other,

The other had no such sentiment.

It was only one sided

But it wasn’t love.

He was in love with her,

So he told her

It was only a confession he made.

One word led to another

They talked throughout the night

Uptill 6 in the morning.

He understood it wasn’t possible

But he never wanted it.

She too expressed her love for him,

He in return said ‘I love you too’

But it isn’t possible.

He knew they had no future.

He overlooked his sleep for a night

Just to comfort her over the phone.

Next day her sickness was gone.

And the day was better than ever for him,

The following dark evening laid him with all the sadness in this world

She began to ignore him.

Surprised, he asked sometimes,

No reason came up.

The night

A small call took place,

From her tone and way of speaking

He understood

She was displeased.

He thought over and

It struck to him,

The proposal was missing from his side,

So he sat,

Sat throughout the sunny, blissful day

Writing his lovely letter for her.

In the end as he wrote his name,

Her stressed text came

She didn’t want it.

It was a huge no,

She simply said

His victorious ‘I Love You’

From her

Was a mere slip of tongue

In flow of momentum.

His world shattered within a second

The letter was literally burnt down.

No one would ever know what it read,

Except that broken heart,

On being asked by her,

he simply replied it was of no use now.

He called her up later at night,

Believing the pure friendship,

Would still exist between the two,

The friendly I love you’s and kisses

Wouldn’t be gone.

Yet again,

Just by her tone

He knew,

It was no more,

She asked from him

What he had every time they got too close

A break;

He knew the break

Was an end,

But yet he agreed

And they bid each other

“The Last Bbye”.

He told her to take care

And that was it.

Yet even the next morning onward,

Every ping, vibration

Or the tiniest notification on his cell,

Made him excited and

He checked to see if it was there,

But again he was reminded

It was all over now,

He found it the hardest thing to believe,

And the anti-depressing text never came.

From his favourite toffee,

She became his drug within a day

And then they told him

It went out of stock

Forever and ever.
