“Congratulations universe, you’ve won“
You asked me what’s my status line mean
I said it’s hard to understand
As it got many interpretations.
I told you the simplest one!

This, other one, is complicated
So I didn’t bother you with it.
I am spoiled by movies and novels
I thought you’d be one of my known
Classmates, friends, colleagues, neighbors
Or co-passengers who have crossed paths.

I wished to meet you naturally somewhere
When we both aren’t looking for love
That someday I meet you like an accident
And we’d become lovers before partners.

But this Universe had a different plan
Of meeting us on a matrimony site
Marrying us traditionally as arranged by our families
And making us partners before we fall in love.
“Congratulations Universe, you’ve won!”
