An Online Love Story </3
  I had a sad day from the start
  An endless pain in my heart
  Those who I called my own betrayed me
  I came away to them never see
  I went online in a haste
  Scrolling my news feed, felt it a waste
  Just as I was closing, saw a notification
  'New friend request': felt this sensation
  A stranger who I never knew before
  Sent me smiley faces four
  I started telling him everything on mind
  From then on, there was no looking behind
  Day and night, I spoke with him
  My pains each day, began to dim
  I found a friend, I found my love
  My empty heart filled with roses and dove
  We met each other, quite too soon
  Had long, lonely walks under the moon
  I tried to make him notice me
  My true self locked away, never to be
  I started wearing many cute dresses
  And stopped doing too many messes
  I went out all the way to be seen
  More than desperate, I had been
  I started fantasizing about our future together
  About weddings in the calm, peaceful weather
  One fine day, I decided to propose
  With a ring in hand and a lovely rose
  I went to the park and waited for him
  Wearing a lovely dress and looking slim
  Then he came with his friends quite a few
  Well...to propose to him, this was my cue
  I poured my heart out and held out the ring
  But he laughed and said I was just a fling
  He went away with his arms around another girl
  Leaving my tattered heart and emotions in a whirl
  I promised myself never to trust
  Rather die than love if I must
  As I sat alone in the dark
  This online love left its searing mark
