Cupid’s arrow rests at unease
lodged in the heart of the deceased lover,
A pain so indifferent to the life at hand
the lover turning blind to the times forthcoming
Pained with the love un-reciprocated
yet seeking to see light as some end,
hope-filled heart in the giving
seeking the bliss of Cupid’s magic
Tainted with social onslaughts
grinded by a sense of betrayal,
yet the heart ceases not to beat
in perfect harmony – endeavour to touch love
Pain notwithstanding the lover gives
One last try to touch the heart seeked,
Only to realise that the futile race
Is for a heart already possessed -by another
