Book preview

Love story of an eccentric girl

Life was going fine

I was neither happy not sad

I was slowly accepting my loneliness

And had come to peace about being single Until you came along!

You just came into my world

Unannounced, unnoticed, and unexpectedly! Blew me out like a storm of divinity

I always taught head over heels wasn't real But after you, I knew it and I experienced it

Happy all the time and smiling for no reason I acted all crazy

But this time I was crazy in love

I started feeling all the cliche things Floating in thin air and so on

I knew I had to tell you

So I picked up every little shards of bravery

Gathered it all in my broken heart

Made a bundle of all my vulnerable feelings And threw it at you with some hope

You simply said No

Asked if you ever gave me such ideas Spoke in such a way or

Ever expressed any romantic interests in you??

How can I describe the care I saw in your eyes?

How can I tell you I felt the most safe and happy with you?

How could you care so much but not love? Probably I was too naive..

Maybe whatever I saw in your eyes

Was something I have always yearned for One thing that really hurts me is

Was it all fake? Was it all platonic?

Did you ever like me at least for a split- second?

Have you ever felt the way I feel about you??

I guess God wanted to have fun with me He saw that I was peaceful and decided to play with me

He brought you to me

And enjoyed as I keep getting lost in the matrix

Of feelings which is in my head

Why God Why?

What did I ever do so wrong?

I have never asked you for someone But you just brought him along

You sat and watched as I fell for him

You probably enjoyed the crazy things I did And you also knew all along this was never gonna happen

You knew he was never gonna be mine Sometimes, I think you are just being hurtful Lord!!

Well, all that is fading now.

I am trying to move on

Oh God! I am still not asking you for anyone For I don't regret the love I did

However, I just felt stupid for all the pointless sadness

From here on, life goes on..

But let me just ask You one thing Make me strong.

For I am an eccentric girl Some says I am too much Others think I am crazy

Some thinks I just want attention Only a few know that I am passionate I feel deeply for every thing

No matter if it's big or small Fun or business

Serious or light-hearted Smiles or tears

God you made me this way You made me passionate You made me sensitive

You made me an overthinker

Honestly, I am happy to be all this Just make me a couple more things Make me brave and self sufficient That is all

Loner

Many people so many groups

So many friends so many families Admin in many WhatsApp groups Member in countless Facebook groups Yet still, she feels alone

Always cracking jokes Always surrounded by people

Always assumed to be brave and social Yet inside her heart she's alone

Family which supports her

Friends who've been for her all the time Acquaintances who have guided her Strangers who've helped her at emergencies But she feels alone

Everyone truly has only themselves We've been there for you and you know it. We'll have our own lives you know!

It's all in your head

Everyone says this to her, like she's ungrateful!

Have you'll felt like an oddball in your own family?

Have you felt like an extra in your friend's group?

When you're there everybody talks But when you aren't there none notices Have you ever felt
