The Reality

Ehsan Sehgal

Our love was not real
And nor based
On the reality
We both had
Some purposes
And reasons for it
You tried to gain
Your opportunities
I tried to figure out
Your game of love
Your suspicious intentions
Your fake images
Didn't establish the truth
You didn't prove
Your love nor I did,
But I tried to prove
My words of love
I saw your behaviour
That didn't match
With my thoughts
I decided to quit and leave
Your fake world of love,
And I did that
For your other victim
Maybe you need a doctor
