Oh! why did I hand over its key to you,

The key of its happiness,

Therein laid delicate treasures,

Crystalline emotions and feelings,

You seeped in softly and tenderly,

Flowed through it as vital energy,

Trapped it with your loving vibes,

It clung to you as last hope,

Its entity throbbed with your life,

Glowed with your warmth,

It entwined with you,

Hoping and believing,

It was till eternity,

The bonded hearts love,

I still stand bemused,

Shocked and trembling,

With unanswered querries,

Why you pushed open its portals?

Unleashed whips of heartlessness?

Trampled over all that ever mattered?

The delicate heart smashed,

The broken pieces lying therein,

Sob incessantly,

Living a throttled death,

Each piece just calling out,

Why oh! why ?
