An unusual love story!

What if I can express?

The memory of his first glance
I got in the mall is still fresh and alive —
like it, all happened yesterday.
Is love at first sight real? Ummm, I don’t know,
Maybe Yes, is all I can say.

Ahhh! What a man he is!!
Have you ever come across a man
who prefers you over everything else,
who reminds you always, that he needs you,
who loses his mind on not seeing you?
I know. It’s seldom.

On a cold night, under the dark sky,
While I listen to him saying
“Oh, I have searched for you all my life!”
as I warm him up with a tight hug is my
a-ha moment — Afterall, I understood why I exist.
We have come so far that; I feel — I’m a part of him.

“How is he still so attracted to me?” —
Is a million-dollar question among his peers.
Wheather at that success party where,
I was the uninvited guest or
at the meeting when everyone bored into his eyes,
Without a doubt, he was always proud of his choice.
He truly owned me.

Not to lie, yes, my beauty did wither away.
Somewhere between being his biggest cheerleader,
to wipe his sweat and tears.
Later in life, he may choose the one better than me.
But our love story is the best —
because firsts’ are always special.

What more a black jacket can ask him?
Knowing him and owning him made my journey worthy.
I have all of him until his fragrance lingers on me.
He is the one for me — My first and last love.
