Expectations, why we have?

a poem by Jeet

So serene life was!
Like the tune of the harp
None was to bother!
But it was just emotions unearthed

With the gush of the wind time flew
And with me emotions grew
A longing for someone
A sense to feel others as own

Came across so many that went by
Few have left their prints behind
And you were one among the few
Whom I adored as my own

Till I gave a name to our relation it was fine
When I placed you next to my heart!
There was a cry…
A cry that you can never be mine

All I did was selfless
For all I did was least I could
Never I wanted any thing in return
Just wanted to care for you

But Alas all went astray
For I expected not what I got
I never expected even the same affection back
But I got the worst unexpected

If you had no care for me
I never would bother
If you have no affection for me
Least I would bother

But please not that what you gave
You gave me that you cannot take it back
If not love for me!
At least not the hatred you shared.
