#TheUnrequitedLove

Clad in a Yelllow Punjabi Suit
And a Green Dupatta
She was climbing the steps
Of E&TC (Electronics and Telecommunication) building.
We were standing outside the
HOD's room, when she just
Walked past us and marched
Straight to the HOD, as if
We were invisible to her.
She had Curly hair, Fair skin
And possessed such Innocent looks
Appeared untouched by the outsideWorld.

Still that sight appears fresh in my mind.
This was for the first time, I saw her.
We were in the Second year of B.Tech
And as she walked out with
The Letter from the HOD, I realised
She was our Classmate.
Couldn't get my eyes off her
Where was she all these days.
Never did see her, even for the
Fresher's Prom Night.
She was not the one,
One can forget, if come across.

Wanted to know her.
Couldn't remove my gaze from her.
Always made attempts to sit close to her.
And this continued for the next 3 years.

In the Second year itself
I, once invited her for our Community meet and to my surprise, she even came
I tried to start a conversation with her
We spoke, but she always carried
An aura that, one couldn't get
Very close to her
She was Simple, She was Innocent.

In the Third year,
We were supposed to do a Project.
I had spent hours in the Library
Preparing for mine....
