A date with a 'hope'!

A date with a 'hope'!
Since morning she had been in the kitchen, 
preparing for him different vegetables.
He was to come, and have dinner with her,
She had waited until the time, that he came.
He asked her, how she had been doing,
how her day had been, and her health?
She was happy, and all her efforts,
all her hard work had brought laurels.
In ill health, she had stood up for him,
and he had greeted her with his love.
It was when, he left her alone at home,
to dine with his friends, and she didn't know.
She sat on the dining table, until long.
There she almost slept, when the doorbell rang.
She woke up, in her liquid eyes, her eyes met him.
He was drunk, and led to the room,
while the dinner table, longed for his sight.
Vegetables were no longer hot,
chapatis had dried up.
While she looked at the lights off,
her eyes bent down, rested on the flooring.
It had been a daily ritual, she wondered,
and yet a hope to have the dinner with her husband.
Who had almost left her, in her decaying health,
but it was all about the magic of this young lady.
Who even in her state of being, dreamt of a sip,
of laughter and affection from him.
Only if her magic would work,
alas! it was yet another day, of all the days,
that did encompass. She was betrayed!

Moral: Love those who love you,
you never know- if it's short-lived.
At least, live upto the time,
you are blessed with that one chance,
to love and be loved in return.
