The soul,

Rots inside,

By and by,

It screams and cries .

One step,another

A smirk, a smile.

Sorrow and tears?

Na,na,na !Just deny,

Bruises and swollen eyed ?

Na,na,na!Paralyzed-

Paradise at my side-

Belt and rod;armed

Monster at night?

Na,na,na!Lovely boy,

Deadly divine.

 

Escape?Oh god!

Must I try?

"Na,na,na,

Out the door 

Yamaraj,he bides.

Stupid girl,open your eyes,

Did you not know,

You are stuck inside!"
