Idea of love

 

While being at the age of sixteen,

I still kinda suck at the trick of being seen!

For many, it’s like a part of their routine,

While for me, it’s only awkwardly amusing!

Maybe, because if the standards that web series had set,

Maybe, because of me, it’s not just about wines and dates,

Maybe, because what you gotta do for me,

Might get a little too much for you.

Maybe, because the version of love I adore, is adored by very, very few.

Because yes, I don’t give a damn if you forget to surprise me on my birthday,

It’s fine if you don’t talk to me all night all day!

I would happily just hold your hand, ditching all the couple goals,

We would together, in love, ditch all those stereotypical gender roles.

Let’s rather cook, shop, wash, sing, work and dance,

Let’s not miss kissing each other for one single chance.

Let’s continue to flirt with each other all our lives,

And while we do this, I would remind you,

How I adore you a little more than the very few.

How, life feels like a cakewalk finally,

How I know I’m feeling all of it because you didn’t wake me up early!

So, this Sunday, I would try making you your favourite caramel pudding.

Because what’s life anyway if not sharing desserts, sorrows and feelings?
