Love in Dystopia

Love in its purest form is not questioned nor doubted for its very mention is suffice to understand its intensity.
It isn't calculated and cannot be measured by a scale.
Love is all about humming the same tune...
Love is all about sharing a single spoon...
Love is to look in the same direction...
Its to hear what goes unsaid...
Its when I stay, even when you leave me
Absorbing another soul into yourself and retaining your own in the same place.

On a dark,windy rainy night
There I stood right outside.
Unperturbed and indifferent
The rain soaked me till I got cold
Stared through rain-drenched eyes
My hair dripping made my head dizzy
I held my coughs back
pretending to not look sick.
The lightning roared in the sky
flashing my face to you once in a while,
and there you sat so cozy & sheltered.
Pretending too, not to look at me
I didn't miss it,not even for once
your pretension kept me rooted.
Stood there so long,all in vain
I wondered if I had fallen for a stone.
Nothing made sense to me

But you still sat and never left,
I forgot I was in the rain.
You unexpectedly came over to me
Shielding me in your arms with a warm smile
So warm that I was no more cold.
You brought me in and dried my hair
covered me all over and held me tight.
I could hear you sing a lullaby
as you rocked me to sleep.
The two hearts pounded as a rhythm in one beat,
You know what I wondered?
Everything made sense to me.
