I am not that dancer whose every step drips off the dazzling grace to take your breath away.
I am not that singer who can melt your heart by singing songs of togetherness in her melodious voice.
I am not that artist who can take you by awe by her effortless strokes on the canvas and take you at the place where roses are red and the eyes can witness the most enchanting view.
I am not that writer who can write beautifully about the betrayals of her beloved.
Neither I am that girl who can turn the eyes by the charming spell of her marvellous beauty.
There is nothing great in me having worth falling for. Will you still fall for me?
There may be times,
When you’d need me but I cant be with you.
When you want to hear ” I am there”, but all I can say is just let me be!
Will you still love me?
I may be yours but I can’t be like you, you see.
I can’t be the way you want me to be. Rather I don’t want to.
I don’t know what love is nor I have any to give you.
All I have is a world, painted in black and white containing the crimson streams of pain and melancholy.
Tell me, will you still love me?
Ohh! C’mon, what are you thinking of? Just give me a NO and go away. Let’s make it quick and easy.
But even after reading each word above, if you wanna give me a YES, then don’t stay, please. Coz then you deserve better than me !!
When initially I thought of writing this, I wanted to add some good lines to be the source of hope. At last, thinking hard of it, I decided to go against it and that’s how it is!
Thanks for reading!!π«
Hopelessly beautiful Chetna.
Iβm glad you decided against a happy ending.

I’m astound. Accepting the one with their flaws is not something everybody can do. Well, forget about people. Most importantly accepting one self with our own flaws is one step toward self love.
Love is may be about knowing whom to choose? But how does it look like we still don’t know! (I don’t know why I wrote thisπ)
Thing is… I’m loving this post of yours! This is meant to be saved.

Well, many a times life puts us into the situation which we couldn’t think of. But still we have to take action. And our every action is related to our own predict of future, you see. Whether it comes true or not is just a probability.

“People said Ove saw the world in black and white. But she was color. All the color he had. ”
That comes from one of my favorite books, a man called ove, which I haven’t read yet.
The writeup is relatable, but don’t keep thinking in that way.
“You are all the colors in one, at full brightness!”
That’s from the book all the bright places, which I haven’t read till now.
