Into Wilderness

Into wilderness

Into wilderness I wished to get lost
Chose I to alienate myself at any cost 

Capricious weather I found far better
Than in your hands harsh treatment I suffer

Inurbane words; your abuse, your curse
Cruel cyclones and tornadoes seem less perverse

I mistook your flatter and fake words for trust
But your malignant actions revealed distrust

Scapegoat you made me for all your malice
Venom of guile and hate dissipate from your life’s chalice

My transitory life craved for love eternal
But you etched episodes of pain in my life’s journal


I choose not to be a silent bud but a flower perspicuous
To gravitate sublime sunshine dismantling maze conspicuous
