Rage


The poisonous snake , raises its head ,
Strikes again!
Pain , depression , sorrow..
Swell up together , mingled and swirling
In the cauldron of mind...
The anger takes shape.
Bad memories ,
Rich contributors in instigation .
Frustration , comes as a tsunami wave....
The mind broods over past disappointments
Harshness spreads on the character
Bitterness engulfs the heart
Emotions burn in rage
And turn the eyes stony , lifeless , heartless....
All this , just for a brief period
But taking away , hours of happiness
Leaving behind , no satisfaction.
People preach , teach , advise
To wring the neck of the snake
To suck out and spit the poison,
Before it spreads
But nothing works..
When clouds of anger shower the gloom
The unwantedness , the revenge .
The eyes turn blind for every other emotion
Just the seething detest flowing in the blood remains
And the mind sways , as if drunk with fury.
The motive of the snake successful ,
The poison paralyzes everything
And the ears shut the inner voice
The bitter emotions are spat in the surroundings
But the heart, the bitten child
Cries with tears of regret
And through all this,
The body suffers
Acting as a puppet of the heart and mind
Completely exhausted at the end of the battle
Rage , expressing so much power
Raises its head
And strikes again!
