Me and You (satirizing the confusion and the submissiveness of Indian girl and boy resp.)

You say, just say you love me do?
"Oh yes, of course i do!"
But then my dear I don't love you!

I 'm so attached to you my dear, to me are you?
"Oh yes, of course me too"
But don't presume it love my dear, I don't love you!

I miss you dear, do you miss me too?
"Oh yes, of course me too"
Then I love you dear, but I don't LOVE you!

We are to meet my dear but not a date mind you
"No!, rather date i'd do"
Then you're a fool my dear, I don't love you!

I don't love you dear, but wish to marry you.
"O said so weird that i can't do"
Then bhad me jao, but no I don't love you!

I have a hard time dear, lend me an arm would you?
"Oh here, have it, I do"
Then I weep in your hand, but no I don't love you!

  1. This is my first satire and the first poem on demand, all the thanks to M.Manzar Baig without whom it was impossible.
