My World

My world The sky darker than red Pouring out tears of blood Everywhere- flames and mud Even the air is filled with discord Welcome to my world Robbers pretending as merciful lords Stealing the people’s collective fund Hmm- Moses without a rod Leading the people to the land of discord Welcome to my world Thieves in disguise as shepherds With fangs as sharp as the leopards Innocent blood used to fertilize their orchards Welcome to my world Dark lords pretending as the light With no single deed in sight They kill with utmost delight While increasing the people’s plight Snakes in disguise as a fish Ready to bite at wish The people’s flesh they are ready to ravish And hell unwilling to unleash My world blessed with riches foretold Vast in precious stones purer than gold A view so beautiful, surely a sight to behold How disaster struck, is story never to be retold Make me the commander of the death squad Make me the bearer of the cavalry sword Make me the knife that draws blood Severing all corruption’s chord Because it’s only then, I can have a perfect world!!!
