Did I Tell You

Did I tell you

I never believed a relation can ever be perfect,

With you I experienced the meaning of togetherness

And the perfectness of ‘us’.

Did I tell you

Being with you meant completeness,

When we understood the meaning of each other’s silence,

When we brought out the best in each other.

Did I tell you

That our endless conversation every day,

All those magical moments that we spent together,

Made the life worth living for.

Did I tell you

Our togetherness forever was something I dreamt of,

And for you, I wanted to be everything,

But I know for you I meant nothing.

Did I tell you

I thought it was love and you were the one for me,

But for you it was just being with any other gal,

And to talk to me was a habit that you changed.

Did I tell you

When you said my name crosses your mind sometimes,

I wanted to tell you…

I’m living every moment with you.

Did I tell you

When you said you look forward to see me,

I was dying to be in your arms

 and everything else does not matter.

Did I tell you

When I cried before you,

It was not because I was weak or needed sympathy

But I was unable to hold onto what I felt for you.

Did I tell you

When you called me fake

There was a lump in my throat but I could not cry,

And the pain was so severe when you mocked at my feelings.

Did I tell you

When you thought I ignored you

I hid all what I was feeling and what I wanted to say

I cried silently, as I was sure you would never understand.

Did I tell you

When you said you are letting me free,

I did not want to go…

I wanted to be a captive in your love forever.

Did I tell you

When you said we can never be together

You made a choice

But for me it was helplessness like a death sentence.

As now you are gone

I still live in the moments that we spent together…

I still love you the way I did…

And I have kept you in my heart forever…

The only difference is,

I have learnt to live this half life

And understood that may be you are not in the lines of my hands

But I was destined to experience love in you and with you.

May be today I mean nothing to you

But you will realize it one day

No one can love you the way I do…
