A Questionnaire

How could someone       
who used to be so live
suddenly turn into a Stone?
I used to adore                        
a Beautiful Loving Soul.
Oh please tell me            
where had he gone?

A Mind that used to be
so kind & caring      
has stopped!
Oh, that's very Sad.
Where is that Human       
who used to be you,
who I used to worship
like mad?

My heart giggled                
with yours, in love
But you've pushed me off.
Tell me, how?

Oh God! What had happened?
Did I misread you?
Or
Have I purposely been
made a fool??

I keep wasting my
thoughts on you                
while so many others
plead just for one or two.

Why, oh why           
can't I realise      
that you don't deserve         
a single thought of mine?!?
