Budding Emotion

BUDDING EMOTIONS

I never knew that it would happen.

Love struck my heart’s door when I least expected.

On the top of the bridge I saw your face for the first time.

Violet flowers bloomed to charm that night.

Enchanting sky shined with the sparkling stars.

You came as a drizzle in my dreary desert.

Over and Over your thoughts flooded my mind.

Unknown to the world, I kept you hidden in my soul.

And you remained my secret crush yet favourite person forever.
