I thought I sat back listening to the beads of rain,
The music breaking the serenity of a rainy day,
The chill breeze caressed the glow from the candle,
Memories sailed into my mind from far far away.

Swarms of guilt aching to engulf me,
Sculpting my loneliness into a devil’s lair
The flutter of thoughts like a swirl of autumn leaves,
Lit up the dark, shattered the nightmare.

Speeding into a spiral, of mushy love,
I felt her inside, desperate to flower out in bloom,
Frisking her senses, I hovered above,
Petal by petal she poisoned life into the gloom!

The light floating down and breaching into the arteries of the skies,
Flamboyance in the fireworks, the music and the jive,
Clouds breathing beams of bright streaks intrigued my eyes,
This seemed to be a scarily interesting place to hive!

Arching back and pushing, we overplayed the game,
A Game, Wild indeed to call for an untold truce
A competition! A burning desire to tame,
We only keep winning, the harder we try to lose.

Thundering and roaring with heavenly might,
The battle, crossed blades with heavy cannon fire,
Serenity stood broken; they never gave up the fight,
Innocence burnt by desire, gobbled by the gargantuan pyre!

We saw purpose, saw what our intentions could fetch,
From the well of life, where everyone does begin,
The wheel of change has blown us to the very edge,
Depriving reason and framing the essence of life as ‘Sin’!
