Player Without a Heart

A player without heart, with unbridled hate
And drenched voluntarily with unfaithful desires
Lacks passion like hungry lion
Efforts like those of thirsty camel
For he plays the grungy game;
Moving fearlessly up and down the field
Using senseless strategies
And rabbitting on like drunken 'idiot'
For what he knows is to rumble
Seeing no beauty around
Only posing a grin of bitterness
Hence displaying notorious vision;
When playing without heart-
-The game is empty of compassion
When playing without heart-
Game lacks motive, pure emotions unwarranted-
Passion is defiled, and love cursed;
When playing without heart-
The game is null and void
A player without heart-
-Is full of nothing but shame
Like he lives in a place the sun never shines
And he is valueless like dust all over
