As I look back, I

keep wondering whether he

really loved me

We started as friends

in school, chit-chatting away

for hours on end

He always made it

a point to do what he could

to see others smile

He always went out

of his way to impress me

or so I observed

With time, we became

inseparable and went

together to college

While initially

things continued as-is or

so it was looking

Something was not right

as cracks started to appear

between both of us

Quarrels were part and

parcel of our lives as we

began to grow apart

And then one day he

just left me for someone else

without any remorse
