Love has expiry dates

It started out fine.
Her smile kept me going through the day.
While my craziness made her smile.
It was an infinite loop.
Or so I thought.

Being friends for awhile,
My feelings grew for her.
Growing..
Expanding..
Every single waking moment
where I am by her side.

However, this feelings weren't realised.
For on this rainy night,
my heart which has just been glued back together,
started to have cracks on it.
For she was with a third party.

And a third party which was much more closer
and whom she trusted more.

Under my umbrella..
Under the pouring rain..
Pounding onto the shield which protects me
and keeps me dry,
I confesed her by phone.

And on that overhead bridge I waited..
Waiting for an answer..
Waiting intently..
I could feel my heart beating fast.

When that little screen came to life,
I opened that message without wasting anytime.

However...

Tears started coming out..
I dropped my shield..
I came onto my knees.
The stream of tears
becoming one with the rain..

I thought that we had gotten somewhere.
But..
alas,
I realized that Love has expiry dates too..
And that day was on this quiet night..

I bare this sorrow alone.
