Red Balloon

Someone gave me a balloon.
A very beautiful one. Red was the color. Glossy and shiny all around.

Like a little child I was beyond happy.
Accepted it with a wide smile on me. I looked up at the giver like I couldn't believe of my luck.

I was so happy...

I played with that red glossy shiny balloon all day. At the end of the day I was smitten for that balloon.
The giver kissed me on forehead.

The giver kissed me on forehead, right before he in all of a sudden took out that balloon away from my little hand.
He said, "the time is up, I should give this balloon back to its owner."
He left me just like that. He left me in the dark.

I still want to play with that balloon, I said, with all my might and all of my tears.
