As
devil unleashed his vitriolic venom
Imprudently they spurned
Fleeing
could have saved them
Too
late now--all in his range were burned
A sweet little
ingenuous child
Viewing the world
through his love tinted eyes
Epitome of
goodness & faith he was
Amazing how soon
the innocence dies
Battered torn scarred
shaken
The world rammed
over him
He ran, he
fought, he lost
Chance of
survival in civilized jungle was slim
Yet each time he
stood up to face the world
With every
battering the child died within
His soul became
darker & darker
He acquired a
thick shell & a sting
Annihilation
ran amok all around
An
unprecedented most unforeseen barrage
How
could they have known who he was
Charm,
comic & candor—chimerical mirage!
Wide
eyes dilated with terror they remembered
The
incredible time when he met first
Sparks
of love flew all around
That
was before the bubble burst
Amongst
those unfortunates was a fairy
She
saw him and she was trapped too
Cheerful
& young like a verdant bower
She
loved him and to him it seemed he loved her too
Her
soft touch was like a water drop on lotus
Epitome
of delicateness, she was beauty surreal
Was
it a dream, or was the dream real
He
stooped to the halo, she made the devil kneel
Love a scorpion
and it can do only one thing
It can sting and
a slow death it can bring
He can’t help it,
it’s his nature, that’s how he grew
Despite knowing that
the sting makes him dead too
Devil he was, he
just couldn't change
But the love was
real, only he knew the same
He cried &
shrieked on destruction of love he had himself hurled
And vitriolic
venom was unleashed on the world
