Halsey, a sweet, intelligent girl had a job at a firm.
Doing her best always, she tried to prove herself as an upcoming success.
Even when alone, she worked past office hours,
Loving everything she did no matter how hard
Failure and criticisms stole her smile on the longest day.
One day, there was something Halsey could no longer forget.
She had loved her boss, so deeply so that,
It was more than fleeting love at first sight.
The boss on the oafish dictatorship voice seem
At times a scum, at times a soul so divine that sees and knows
Halsey not as a bird trapped, but an infinite talented star
That took all the sun, rain, clouds and thunder into her hold.
Three hour pep talks often he gave,
Were in the spirit to get off the dime, better than unsaid.
But there it is, this love wind blew in from the windowless,
Anticipating each call from this name madly in office.
Her heart had left elsewhere, already taken.
But Departure told this good girl to call it all in.
Goodbye, Mr. Boss, I had loved you too much so.
Remembering all the things he had told her,
Thinking if any kisses had any meaning,
Words that cared and cared not,
Never even a spark of an affair.
They were not meant to be, he a father, a husband,
A millionaire owner player feeding but never offering affection.
This time, a final glance at his distant frame,
Was all she could get, so by the last Friday,
Halsey packed up and left,
Mind and body would rather get the sack.
