Who lives wins.

There was once a young girl
The youngest among sisters three
Completely rotten and pampered
Living life independant and free

She had a well cared for life
Her mind sharp as a tack; a class topper
Her crowd always hep and cool and naughty
What you wud call a tomboyish teenybopper

Love struck her early on
They got along like a house on fire
But alas it was not meant to be
She had a purpose and calling much higher

So keeping it all clean and neat
She said I 've got some serious studying to do
Be a nerd, a geek, the college bookworm
At the same time making heads turn too

Scoring all the marks and getting all the medals
UG went PG came; days rolling by
Somewhere along love struck again
Her happiness and joy soaring sky high

Scooting off to secretly meet despite hectic schedules
This romance was crazy; they made it look too easy
Time marched on and they got happily married
Amidst all the confusion and frenzy

But alas fate had other plans
Striking a deadly blow at this pretty picture
The girl came down with a crippling fever
Their lives seizing and wheezing due to this constricture

Here’s when the prince charming's true colors were revealed
He stood up and took everything in stride
All with a calm mind and handsome smile
He never wavered or faded from the girls side

The fever lashed out and raged on
The girl began to break physically and mentally
The man held her hand throughout
Never letting go; not one to ever dally

When the fever finally broke; the girl became whole again
The man was still there, smiling his silent smile
His strength and willpower unimaginable
Silently whispering words of wisdom once in a while

Life is but a finite journey
For all u have are few countable days to remember
But the love of your life and the life that you love
Makes these times immortal, eternal; a true paradox.
