The World at Large

  The descending sun spooks me, As it reminds me of impending doom. The fate of the world hanging on  the joker wearing the crown. A game of deceit and endless conspiracies, Rigged to make the hidden emerge strong. ‘Come one come all’ The sign bellows. Not one peasant decided to enjoy the menu. They are sinking to fall in their own broken ship. All towing to head into the dark abyss. We enjoy playing the game when it is, Someone else who’s head will twirl if they miss. But when the trigger loads and the target is us. When the bullet wants to grab hold on us. We run so far, without a hitch. We run to never stop to check. What happened to those who tried to save us?

A Father's Love - A tribute

From doing your hair and letting you do his,
To giving you a goodnight kiss
From teaching you all the lessons of life,
To making sure you get your sleep at night.

Every girl’s first superhero and perfect guy.
He listens to all your mad theories,
And later adds on his own lines.

A father’s love is strangely expressive,
It’s a whole combo package with teachings and surprises
From buying you your favourite toy,
To giving you the perfect life.

A father’s love is strangely unique,
It’s a light of hope made for only you to see.
He takes in all your mindless yelling
And later makes you smile without ailing.

A father’s love is strangely strong,
It helps overcome even the deepest of cuts.
From helping you rise up whenever you fall,
To making sure no one puts you down.

A father’s love is beyond words,
It’s a feeling to be felt by every girl.
To see him smile because of us,
It’s a true blessing, a feeling of love
