DESIGNED BY LOVE
Just as the fishes swim in water with joy,
I swim with gladness in the river of love.
Happiness streak through me like a comet,
Because I've found the one who loves me.
My past is now a story that plants a faint smile on my face.
The smile makes me know how strong I was.
Suicide could have been the best option,
But I held my head high.
My heart was diced in pain,
Pulverized to look unrepairable.
I hated love, and was dwelling in hurt.
Love made me look like a rag.
Love looked like an already watched movie;
I always knew the end right from the beginning.
I gave my all,
But in the end, I was made to fall.
True love found me and picked me up,
It cleansed me and wrapped me in warmth;
It fixed my heart and transformed me.
How tasteful and colourful love appeared.
I have come a long, I am victorious;
Joy accompanies all round rest in my heart.
No one sees the scars in me,
Because I am now decorated in love.
