A COLD LOVE!!..

I lay in bed.

The bed was a sea of white.

I had a failing sight,

but it had not yet lost all its might.

As I vaguely saw around me,

people, people, people.

It was a sea of humanity.

They were all gathered there for me,

but I knew not why.

Because the one I so eagerly awaited to see,

was yet to arrive.

An endless wait later,

she appeared in vicinity.

And as she approached closer with each stride,

my heart beat faster.

I had a strong urge to follow her.

But, I knew that it carried a price.

I’d have to leave these people behind,

but none of it bothered me.

I also knew of her past.

History had stood as testament,

to how disloyal she is.

Numerous men in the past,

have been bowled over by her charm.

I’m not the first man she takes with me,

nor will I be the last.

But for reasons unknown,

i still awaited her,

with open arms.

And almost suddenly,

i felt her swooping down.

And as she caressed me,

it sent shivers down my spine.

A touch so cold,

it made me numb.

She planted her lips on mine.

And as she kissed them,

it felt like life was being sucked out.

She had embraced me.

And I embraced her.

She had welcomed me to her abode,

and I gladly obliged.

Suddenly, i heard some sobs.

I turned around,

to find the sea of people drowned in tears.

I didn’t know why and I didn’t care.

Falling for her charm more and more with each step,

I continued pursuing her,

until she finally opened the gates to her abode.

It seemed an unfamiliar place.

I walked past the corridors,

glancing at the walls,

and images of the mourning people flashed across.

I realized that i was probably missing something.

Or, was i ?

Yes, of course i was,

After all,

i was a dead man…
