I'll fall for you, if you fall for me"that's not how love's supposed to be;its when you seek solace in pain and love retains without complaints.Kashish Gurung
Over-thinking, a devouring monster, entice, only the inky reflections;there's a pleasure you come by, from this anomalous encounter;kills your desire, for human affection.Kashish Gurung
