(Un)conditional Love

When did conditions start creeping in

Into the love that was unconditional to start with.

Does the passage of time

Dictate the changes

Or is it the pressures of life.

A life that is conditional to live

Because of the many expectations

Some self driven and others by the many.

It becomes difficult some times

To raise above these

Even when we want to

Such are the pressures.

Once in a while, in midst of all this

When we remember seeing the rainbow together

The shared scoop of ice cream

Or the tucked away memorabilia

In the shelves of the mind

Tucked away under the mundane

Daily clothes and daily routines

We still find the magic

That refuses to fade away.
