My State Of Mind

SELF IMPOSED BLINDNESS

My shirt was clinging to my body

Like it was a second skin

The cold was starting

To get into my body

Yet I stood there patiently

Waiting for her to show up

Standing by her window

She signaled me

That it was cold and raining

Like I didn't know

Her sister joined her

And they started laughing at me.

As I went back home

I started to reflect

That my love was misplaced

My love was never returned

Yet I kept on knocking and looking

At the locked door.

Regardless of the eye opener

I never realised

That I didn't only fell in love

But I crushed into love

And lost everything I had

Including my pride and myself.
