Lorikeet - Unrequited Love

Besides the gushing water,

I was lying, cold and oblivious,

Numbness all around,

And for everyone I was mysterious.

An angelic figure perched on a nearby pine tree

Technicolor spectrum or a rainbow hue

Wearing almost every color,

Be it pink or green or blue.

Majestic flight,

A beautiful sight

Wild enough,

Trust me, not a bluff

Bright shiny feathers,

Inspiration for others

Eyes like a pearl,

Surely out of the world

The pride it carried

None less than a fairy.

Munificent she was,

Just like a Santa Claus

Embodiment of love and compassion,

Which never goes out of fashion

Taught me to spread my wings

Completely ignorant of the motivation she brings

Sweet melodious voice,

Wholly, my only choice.

Few moments is all it took,

for her to read me like an open book

when no one else was even near my vicinity

And in those few moments, she gave me a little infinity

Then she took a flight again

To start a new journey.

Maybe to a new place

For her, which is more worthy.

After months, I sit beside the same river again,

I can feel the warmth and tranquil,

And reminiscing the past

For which I am very grateful!
