Beyond Look
Your front view, might be stunning;
Your back stunt as well be cunning
Whenever you walk on busy street-
Hearts' eyes blink to skip a beat...
But beyond that are much more
Than what eyes alone could explore...
Like minds would view with intent clues,
Unto caution to be far away timing cruise
When not driven by the appropriate attitude,
Engrossed by SORRY but not also gratitude
Cum little concern to a bit of help as surety,
When beaten to crazy bets off maturity...
Then comes a beautiful mindset,
That's more attractive than regret,
When beauty alone couldn't bail out worries...
Indiscipline sets in from how caution horries
Away from frown that warns,
Cos it's painful more like thorns;
Frustrating logical fights' set back-
Reasoning far above lustful attack.
It is tough but shameful,
We have come to a time
Where decency is a crime,
Yet imprudence is beautiful.
A time:
Where character ain't cherished,
Let alone of value like treasure
To be treated with delight and pleasure,
But rather be left behind till it perished.
A time:
Where loyalty in friendship,
Don't count as much as benefits...
But cherished more of what look befits-
Each face of the day despite the hardship.
Your inner beauty,
Is your ideal choice-
Of how, what, when to voice...
With care, value, trust cum duty.
Often, lust normally don't seek beyond look...
Accompanied by nice gestures,
Until deceived mind concurs,
Then needs arise what beauty can't hook.
