OUR LOVE


OUR LOVE

We thought it’ll last forever

But we were wrong

For the other party I would commit murder

For me she could refuse a million dollar deal

Turned against her religion only for me

For us …I say

 

It seemed good but felt wrong

Ignored the feeling  to feed human expectation

But  the pain  in me …

It’s beyond human comprehension

We get to sacrifice our happiness

Worked hard to serve

 

Only to serve their wishes

It was never easy working so hard

Soo hard without compensation

Today am done …

I stand and claim my commission

Or else am done

Or else am done pretending

Like the guy on the mirror

Who cry when I cry
