Wicked Smile

The Sinorians were all happy when the guests came They welcomed the guests with warm hugs The guests promised to show them heaven They did take them to heaven They built houses and cars for the Sinorians They made them feel the taste of freshness and luxury They taught them to live a king’s life Then it was the era of happiness, abundance and festivals One fine day the guests left with a wicked smile They didn’t wait for the farewell It was too late when the Sinorians realize the valuables are gone And they have nothing left there By the time the seeds which the guests left behind started to grow The seeds of war The seeds of riots Slowly those plants started grow The plants became trees in no time And those trees started to hunt the Sinorians Some tried to run Some tried to swim But the roots and branches of the plants were so deep and long The Sinorians couldn’t escape from those The houses were no help for them The cars couldn’t take them too far Kids drowned and their dead bodies were lying on the beach Now they think of the good old days of desert life The days before the guests came The days they only had to love their women They only had to play with their kids The days they only had to worship the god But those days were out of their reach They searched for the god everywhere They couldn’t find him The god was with the guests Hanging on the walls of the palace made with the fortune of Sinorians Everything they loved and worshipped was taken by the guests The wicked smile on the guests face was so powerful and meaningful….
