I Will Always Love You

Turn at the corner,

don't look back!

The walls rise behind you,

of memories, as they stack.

Oh and that just rhymed!

But did it make sense?

Of course! The rhyme was on purposes,

so put down your macro lens.

 

Life! they said,

wasn't about finding a meaning,

but about giving the meaning.

I know I broke my rhyme scheme,

but what is it,

when compared to broken dreams.

 

Day and night,

drop by drop,

we collect sweet nothings.

Only to drop the sweet

at every corner and move ahead

with NOTHING.

 

How many more corners?

Haven't I come a full circle yet?

I know circles don't have corners

But this is far less weird

than it often gets.

 

You ask me stupid questions

‘Are you hurt?’

Disappointed may be

‘Did you learn?’

I don't know

‘Have you changed?’

May be by an inch.

But for once will you care

To tell me ‘It will be alright'

Oh, and please as you say it

Try not to flinch.

 

I love you

I have always loved you

Dear life!

No matter what you do

In my heart It will always be rife.
