Even if you push me towards someone else

I won't 

It's not that we are bound 

By forever togetherness

I can't share you

Nor wish to be shared 

As per your eccentric tastes

I am wired with emotions

You observe only flesh

In abundance

I was neither yours 

Nor you were mine

We were just a phase

But before we could solidify what we had composed

You drifted to someone else

Does it hurt 

No

For there were no expectations 

We knew the purpose of ritualistic exchanges

You grew over me

While I grew with you

Waiting...

For the day to culminate

But you left with excuses 

And I am back to my wired cocooned self.
