Be Jaded With Love

It was a day after I slept with you,
You said —
“I should love you,
I should marry you.”
Oh, rascal thoughts!
I only sleep with the best,
Please, don’t be angry over this zest.

You revealed - you will hate me till death.
Babe don’t; you are not going to love me until death.
As long as you hate me, you will remember me.
Love me less and less,
Be jaded with love.

I don't believe you,
You didn't love me in the past.
So, your hate may be fake and pretentious,
As, your heart might be cool and clean.
Babe, be jaded with my love.

Love me so little that you don't love me,
Love me so little that you will forget me,
Love your dreams, love the drama you are involved in,
Don't hate me.
Be jaded with love.

I can behold the horizon,
Where you kissed me till dawn.
Babe, I can behold the pyre,
Where I will burn to ashes.
Babe, whether you hate me or love me,
Don't fade as you yearn for Nirvana,
Beside my pyre.
