She asked me in such lassitude,
“Do you really love me?”
I was shocked with
the absurdity
of that sudden pestering
for I had no response
but bewilderment,
looking at her fury eyes
in disdain, puzzled
for after a
century of entanglement
we had gone through
in fervor ardor
in the bad, ugly and worst times
together, just the two of us
on the wide green expanse,
where did the question coming from?
I thought we were soulmates,
forever inseparable!
After wiping away
my volcanic teardrops,
I told her,
*I have a heart that beats
faster than a drum
every time I think about you.
So, could that be
a real love or something else my dear?*”
She looked into my dejected eyes
with such contempt and bitterness
and a smirking gaze,
then just walked away
without a single word
coming out of her mouth.
*That was the last time
I felt my heartbeat.*
