They met as kids.
They laughed through their teens,
Loved through nine golden years.
Ishan saw his world in her smile.
She was his always,
They made promises,
Wrote dreams ,
Held hands through every scar
But love......?
One day, everything changed.
she was in love —
But not with Ishan.
Ishan's closest friend,
The one who once cheered for their forever.
Now, he stood beside her —
Not as a friend,
But as the man she chose.
Ishan watched the world he built collapse in silence.
No screams.
Just cracks in forever,
"How do you hurt a love that lived?
How do you bury trust that bloomed?"
He walks alone now,
With eyes that still hold pain.

she stayed in his heart even if she left his world.
