Deception.

She had always been loved, but never pampered.

Her needs were fulfilled, but not all her wishes had been heard.

She never demanded, or never complained;

Never hungry for fame.

She was satisfied with the life she led, a happy being she was,

Trouble to anyone she would never cause

She was every man’s dream,

But she was never hungry for all the cream

She had something in her which made her unique,

Her emotions she would never let leak.

She had a fire in herself which would make everything possible for her,

She never let herself break; she held each pure part of her together.

Never sabotaged, always chaste – that describes her best.

They say love knocks on your door when you expect it the least, and it was true for her,

She had fallen head over heels for Him, when he was around she would just look at him, rest of the world would get blur

She never thought he would feel the same,

Feelings of sadness gripped her mind, feelings of anxiety came

Every single night, she cried until her tears dried

He had taken her emotions for a ride,

And the best part was- he didn’t even know

He never knew about the emotions that in her mind would flow.

But secretly, he loved her more than anything he could possibly love

She to herself was an ugly duckling, but to him she was the prettiest dove.

She didn’t have the perfect face,

Or even the tiniest waist.

But he was never interested in materialistic things; inner beauty was important to him

In that she was certainly proper and prim.

One fine day he asked if she would marry him, she was mum.

She had never been a Princess to anyone,

But if it was for him, she was ready to make an exception.

For she knew, there would be no chance of deception.
