One day I learnt that it's possible

to hurt yourself through another;

that seeing you suffer because of me

could cause pain like no other.

But that's not why I'm sorry

for my atrocious deed

I just hate having lost your trust-

the very thing I need.

So how to make it upto you--

the flawless heart I shattered?

If I gave you the moon and all the stars

would you think I mattered?

What if I poured the ocean blue

in a bottle as a gift

just for my beloved--

would it mend this painful rift?

a pet dolphin or a tiger

or if I buy you the whole zoo?

or gave my heart on a platter

(you know I'd die for you.)

alas you still seem far away

and its really scaring me

but I hope--I know

you'll love me back

just you wait and see.
