It’s Not That...

It’s not that she is lonely

Or that her friends aren’t enough

But sometimes she needs a pal

Who melts her from inside while on the surface she seems tough!

It’s not that she wants to belong

Just because everyone around is taken

But sometimes she desires a companion

Who knows her in a way that even she had forsaken!

It’s not that she is fragile

Or that she needs someone to lean on

But sometimes she wants a pillar

Whose existence is the only thing that never leaves her alone!

It’s not that she is running out of time

Or that she’s ageing faster than she could perceive

But sometimes she wishes to live with a devoted soul

The moments shared with whom is the only life she’ll ever believe!

It’s not that she is scared

Of walking this life’s path in darkness

But sometimes she yearns for a ray of light

That shows her how hitches can also bring along happiness!

It’s not that she feels incomplete

Or that love is what would fill the space

But sometimes her heart aches for a lover

Who adores the emptiness in her with all its grace!
