Mehreen Mujeeb's Poignant Reflection on Love as a Burden ❤️

Love is carried as a burden <br />As a load tied around your back <br />You expect your lover to carry your load <br />And trip in all your cracks. <br /> <br />That’s what I felt <br />In a feeling called love <br />I was left to dealt <br />With expectations. <br /> <br />You give <br />So you get <br />What if you feel love <br />But don’t feel it back? <br /> <br />I fell into love and drowned <br />Even though in love you fly <br />Felt the blame for every wrong <br />But in love what is right? <br /> <br />If love is to feel <br />Then why do we expect?<br /><br />Mehreen Mujeeb<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/algorithm/
