YOU MUST KNOW

I am no prince,
You are no princess.
And no bird is singing for us,
And a flower is a flower,
And the rivers just flow,
And there is no magic
In the glow of fireflies.
I just told you lies.

When a poetry is quixotic how dear it is !

And when it utters reality, it's so heartbreaking.

For me,there lies the difference between a prose and poetry.

I loved hating this verse.Its Brilliant.
