After 1st April
The day she chose to leave him
He felt all the world’s woes upon him
Like she had arrived without notice, so did she leave him
Never in her heart did she remotely pity him
The day after she chose to leave him
The rain from his eyes came down in torrents
The heavens too let down heavy drops
He went out to feel the rain coming down
The cold harsh raindrops soaked him allover
A smile then played on his lips
He knew someone else grieved for him
The rain, it occurred, was the tears in Cupid’s eyes
