MY HEART WAS ONCE BUT YOUR

MY HEART WAS ONCE BUT YOUR



Once we were almost strangers,
Unknown to each other.
Till our hearts, in a bondage,
Of love we did tether.

Though our love was untarnished,
Soon did we realize
That our ways were different
And to part would be wise.

Though I don’t know where you are,
Yet this I know for sure:
Though we could not get along,
My heart was once but your.

Yes, it was rather short lived,
My very first love stint.
It has truly left on me
Its indelible print.
