The One Mightier
Who do you deem to be stronger?
Be it God or the Devil?
Simple!
Should you wish to know the answer
Why, just see to what extent do you wish the world to be ill
Yes, God did make us, the torchbearers of life
Yes, God did believe we would be His followers
Yet, see today, mass killings for His own sake
So much that I do even wonder if God is dead or awake
To have taken birth in this world
Is none but the result of a fall
Our own, a fall we suffer now, a fall from the great Heaven
Our past life, the one we cannot remember
Is the cause of all that we do get in this one
This one life, shall indeed be the one weighed for our next one
Shall we be graced as to be allowed an ascent back to the holy land
Or shall we remain here in this putrid land
Or shall we go down further beyond, to the hellish grounds
Why, pray, do mind my words, and do be good to all who do surround you
Who you do deem to be stronger
Is none other but the one you choose to follow
Human hearts are made of two parts
The first belongs to God
The other one belongs to the Devil
Of course, sometimes we do wish to do good
Yes!
At other times, we do wish to harm
Mind you! Think twice, thrice even
And if you need to back out from evil, please do so!
Lie not, kill not, harm not, bring not anyone down
As everything about you, about each one of you
Is being kept, recorded and stored
Someday, you shall be judged, like me, like all others
Then, you shall realize, who is the One Mightier; God or the Devil!
