HOW OUR LOVEBUG CRASHED

HOW OUR LOVEBUG CRASHED

Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE

You and me driving to the sunset point

On a lazy afternoon

The perfect happy two on the uphill roads

The streets we seemed to own

Singing our favorite song

Our first dance i still cherish on its tune

And that was when we drove our lovebug

That lazy afternoon

O! What a beautiful day it was

And the night we had before..

The waltz, the moon, the song and the kiss

It was our love growing more

And then with that sparkling ring

You sealed our bond for sure

The memories rushed by as we drove our lovebug

That lazy afternoon

You smiled at me and held my hand

The jewel had a newfound glow

You kissed the rock and said...."Wait my dear,

We will be reaching the summit soon

And at the sunset point, as promised -

I'll propose to you!...."

The happy sunshine showers on us as we drive our lovebug

That lazy afternoon

Suddenly the crimson sky coughed up greys

And a cloud of dust blew

Blinding our dreamy eyes in which a new fear settled in,

The fear of losing....You!

So, I reached out my hand for you dear

But you were already holding hers..

And then I knew, this was a dream all along

Yes!! that was when our lovebug crashed

One lazy afternoon....
