Paradox of Life
The world is a stage of many colours
Whilst life, a vogue show with countless actors.
Earth is a brown carpet of meadow greens
Where meagre flowers grow in plastered fields.
.
Life is a young sadistice raging bull;
Knocking out the recent castrated hope;
Leaving behind a horde of utmost gloom
Wrapped in a blanket of precarious doom.
.
Life is a set sui generis onyx,
Glistening to the dance of charming frocks;
Invading the peace of saccharine clutch
With her enthralling dinghy-cupid touch.
.
As destiny made us quiver with fear
And shiver at the sight of hope's dim-glare;
We crave for a home in the glitzy sky
Where tracks of desperate life can ne'er ply.
.
Aye! We pledge allegiance to life's comfort
With loyalty, we come without distort
Before the presence of life flowing thrive.
Why shall we not enjoy her without strife?
.
