Love and life

This is a story,
often left untold,
a story of love,
beautiful and bold.

She loved him,
and he loved her,
often they dreamt
of being together.

Her love was earnest,
from her heart's core,
she was the only one,
he ever did adore.

He was sincere,
and her love was true,
but what lay in other's heart,
neither knew.

Tricky as one may call,
the nature's law,
'coz what would come next,
none foresaw.

He proposed to her,
and she fell in doubt,
the turmoil within,
unshown without.

For she was in a dilemma,
and could not decide,
of whom, among the worthy,
would she be the bride.

Such is the nature's law,
such is her game,
the one she loved and the one who loved her,
were not the same.
