A Heart That Went Bankrupt

In a bank called my heart, a treasury,

I invested all my love and your memory.

Fixed for sweet returns forever,

But only pain and misery in turn, a terror.

Wanted transactions of love and care,

But was denied and now I am in despair.

My ATL (Any Time Love) was forever open for you,

You visited anytime with a smile, no que.

The vault of my heart is now sealed,

I opened it multiple times, nothing to yield.

For every deposit of yours, I gave more,

But, all that remains is paining my core.

I lost all my emotions in your gaze,

Now with zero balance and it’s freezed.

With it, you took away my heart too,

All my emotional accounts are bankrupt, it’s true.

I wanted your love to be a dividend,

To grow forever without an end.

You withdrew everything with no care,

Left with an empty vault, nothing to spare.

My ATL was always open for you,

But you withdrew beyond limit, I didn’t knew.

The safe deposit box is forever locked,

There is nothing left, even my soul is shocked.

I gave all my savings, it was my trust,

Yet you proved in true love pain is must.

My bank once filled with fortune of happiness,

Now it stays empty, no emotions, I dismiss.

The bank is bankrupt, nothing to give,

My emotions run empty, no reason to survive.

Only because, I invested all my love and your memory,

In a bank called my heart, a treasury.
