Once you've lighted up my life
when I was about to lose myself
somewhere in the dark.
Later, that same you left myself
somewhere in the dark
when I was about to regain myself
and while preparing to be your wife.
Yes! As your wife.
You can't imagine how it marked
scars all over my heart.
You just recollect how I barked
like a dog for your heart.
Within your absence, my life
has no meaning, no colour, no shape
That I have planned once for my life.
Yes! As your wife.
And now,
That same me who used to
talk with you everyday
In front of the mirror
with my twinkling, dreamy, love-filled eyes
Is now looking at the mirror everyday
With my sunken, lifeless, tearless eyes
I ask myself, is this called love?
