Monstrous Cruelty
Unmet expectations damage the dormant psyche,
futile promises smother the rays of fading hope,
unkind words tear the lattice of my mangled mind.
My life is wrecked by your grotesque conduct.
Your senses become the fast spreading wild fire,
uncontrolled, it boils the blood of your intrinsic pride,
and as it flares up, it burns my gentle demeanor.
Its ferocity blazes the bonhomie of bonding chords.
Your flashing eyes reveal you seethe hideously inside,
generate a malice inferno of a monster in your heart .
The twisted tongue spills out your sentiments so sadistic,
smeared with the vicious venom of your gruesome mind.
The scruple of sane sagacity turns into shredding cinder,
erupting out of your fuming volcanic fervent fury,
flows in the spreading smoke of stifling spite,
consuming the remains of reason you lose frenzied.
The scorched petals of my floral essence are dislodged
by the fierce dust storm of passionate perturbation.
The torn flower vainly tries to regain the lost grace,
sees the dreams turn into debris, suffering a silent pain.
With the arcane acumen of a trickster devil,
as sordid silhouette of menace you crawl stealthily
into the quintessence of my life to suck the ambrosia
of my soul, the casualty of your monstrous cruelty.
