Reasons

Reasons

I gave her away for reasons untold. I gave her away because I loved.
I gave her away to keep her safe but she was broken and now she's gone.

"What was your reason?"

"Love. Love was my reason"

It all started because of a smile. That innocent and endearing smile brought chaos and happiness in my life.
Eyes that glimmered in the sun, a laugh that echoes in the breeze, all of it was just magical.
A celestial being full of wonders, a magnificent beauty per se.
Someone that could give hope to a noir world of black and white.

"What was the risk?"

"Unrequited love."

To love without being loved back, it stabbed every inch of my being but each and every day,
I wished for happiness yet not for me but for her.

"Did you confess?"

"I did."

Legs shaking, cold sweat and flowers in both hands, typical way of confessing.
"I'm sorry"
It was all I needed to hear. No more, no less. I smiled and walked away.
Even the gods felt for me. They showered me with their sorrow, my tears being carried away by the rain.

 

"Hearts are jars, you put love in it to keep you full and alive but why did you give yours to someone who'll never love you in return?"

Cause my broken heart has all that love to give.
