I thought, I was in a 'true' love
with her,
After six years, I deciphered,
It was a mere attraction,
To her special mannerisms.
I thought, I was in a 'real' love with her,
After 30 years, I realised,
It was a peculiar attachment,
To her multifaceted virtues.
I felt, I was in vague love
with her,
After 50 years, I unearthed,
It was a true and factual love,
Sans any qualification.
