This is a story of one she knew
She shared this with me, let me share this with you
Read it carefully on each line
Read it as well between the lines.

She met a boy many years ago
Called him boy for a reason or two
He was timid and shy when she first saw
Good looking and seemed intelligent, too.

The meeting was short, each has to go
They parted ways but in their they hearts knew
They’ll meet again after ten years or so
In time when each no longer one but two.

There they are after ten years and three
In a gathering where they saw each other
Their heart beat never as fast
Faster than the time they saw each other last.

He lost himself into the blue
His mind was with her, this she knew
She wondered despite they were apart
He captured her soul and heart.

Then came the unexpected year
He and she faced again each other
Could not believed they sat together
As they drink tea and eat hamburger.

He spoke words only he understood
She tried to understand him as much she could
Many things cropped in her mind
He must be tired, cannot control his mind.

Many days passed, they turned to weeks
She found him heavenly and sleek
He easily finds a reason or two
A pretty alibi, she thought them so.

He called her names she never was
In order to free his name and face
Never she thought he was that mean
To her he was so neat and clean.

Many unusual things she noticed in him
Things she observed but he never claimed
Until the time her mind recalled
He had a dark secret she must unfold.

The secret he kept no mystery at all
It confirmed of what she knew before
The sane person she thought before
He is not sane, not any more.

She laughed it out, laughed it so loud
So loud it passed the clouds
His secret book opened before him
He got no recourse but, hide from her realm.

There is lesson I learned from this
A lesson which goes like this
“In this world where people judge fast,
The louder laugh is from one who laughs last.”
