Test of the Best...

I saw a man in the mirror,
bright eyes, smiling face, smart attire..
his hands, holding his heart-
charred, as if just brought out of fire..

When questioned,
He answered in a deep dry detached Voice..
"I am the one who clings, who binds,
when you bond with the people of your choice.."

"I smile, I commit, I give myself up,
for the bond that you form..
I cry, I expect, I Loose my existence,
because of the bond that you form.."

"I love passionately and trust blindly,
for the bond to be more tight, more strong..
I fulfill all that's desired, expect,
and fight as if nothings going to go wrong.."

"When the relationship is in flames-
(expectations, disputes, fuel the fire, am sure)..
-I throw my heart into it, knowing-
In the end, the bond shall grow to be more pure.."

Hearing this, I could not resist and Queried-
"Why is it then, that all am left with is you?
No bond pure, no fire quelled,
Just lonely, full of tears, me, and smiling you?"

Answered he, with the smile intact - "Because-
the loved ones may have given up on you,sure-
But despite the burning heart my dear,
I have not yet given up on the love, pure.."
