Am I Done With Love?

Each time it happened, it brought a ray of hope

But now it carries with it, just a fear to cope

Am I done with Love?

Or I still have it in me?

Is it just a mirage?

Or can I still succeed?

When I look back at what transpired

Sometimes it was them, sometimes me

But whoever be blamed for the failures

In the end I was the loser to be

So when the heart skips a beat again

How can it be a reason to smile?

For I have learnt it the hard way

That this thing is not meant for me.

Am I done with Love?

Or I still have it in me?

Is it just a mirage?

Or can I still succeed?

I've always seen myself as a romantic

And this notion has taken my toll

Weaving the dreams just too soon

I have seen them tumbling galore

I want to take a chance again

But know well, that’s not the right way

For each smile that adorns my face today

Will be paid by a drop of tear not far away

Am I done with Love?

Or I still have it in me?

Is it just a mirage?

Or can I still succeed?

P.S. - A comment posted on my novelette 'Everyone Has a Cupid Tale to Tell' after a long time brought out this stupid song. So please don’t ask ‘who is she?'
