October Diaries- Post #6: The Other Side

She tip toed her way into a life
And then another and still one more.
And as she went she touched their souls
And gave them reason to live a lot more.
This girl, she thrived on her ability to love.
It drove people to love in turn.
And thus she never stopped this switching game,
Loving all she could was never enough.

One day she came upon this boy.
Ordinary, though, he seemed,
She loved him explicitly and found perfection in him.
For the fist time, she loved unexpectedly.
For the first time, she felt her love was returned
In the right measure that is for sure.
All her life, this was for what she had loved and yearned.

The boy gave her reason to love herself more than to love him.
And that probably did her more good than she'd think, for him, she could.
Until the day, so subtly, he left her alone
And went away for reasons untold.

Suddenly, the girl who went around changing everyone's lives,
Who had made a difference to lives one after the other,
Was experiencing change like it was a new tide.
Now, someone changed her, she stood on the other side.
