All a girl wants is to be loved !



I believed in fairy tales, a happily after ever

Left my city, family and friends

To find love - that's what marriage is about

Or so I thought

My dreams came crashing down

When all you do is give, but can't hope to receive

So I thought if I lose weight

He will love me

And I became anaemic, all for love's sake

But no, it didn't work

How can I make him love me

Was all I thought

Am I missing something?

Or maybe I need to just ask

So I did with a heavy heart

I asked to be loved

Thrice to be heard

It was my last resort

Expressed my wish to the one I love

To have a baby atleast who will love me and need me

And be there for me

But I was met with silence

The emptiness, pain and loneliness was more than I could bear

Walked out before I could despair

Maybe I asked for too much

All a girl wants is to be loved

 I wonder where I went wrong

Just to be loved is all I longed

Now they tell me I am strong

But that's not who I am

I'm broken, just lost.
