…is what you make it out to be

 

Beauty and the beast
Was just a case of Stockholm Syndrome

Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal
Was just the exploits of a polygamist

Sir Lancelot and Queen Guinevere
Was just an adulterous love affair

Romeo and Juliet
Was just the mess children make trying to act like adults

Salim and Anarkili
Was just a case of social division

Orpheus and Eurydice
Was just a calamity masterminded by God

Quasimodo and Esmeralda
Was just a tale of unrequited affection?

Layla and Majnun
Was just a tragedy that ends in the graveyard

Fiction or fact. Forget the stories
Love is what you make it out to be
