Paying For Love

Why do I pray and still pay ?

Why did your love come late ?

What is the source of attraction ?

The bread I earn or the affection I display?

What is the offer on the table ?

The words that stand as pillar

That I’ve never heard

Is time precious to you ?

If so eloquently display an achievement

Or a period your morals was recognized

What is pride without knowledge ?

What is wealth without humility ?

My personality you’ve familiarized with

So what fuels this thirst ?

The soft spot for vanity

In your world what comes first ?

The illusion or reality ?

Will I be indebt till eternity ?

For prayers never saved me from paying
