THE MONSTER WE ALL DREAD

THE MONSTER WE ALL DREAD

 

You always feel the same way,

Regardless of place, age, gender or even social class,

Forever sorrowful and extremely agonizing,

The ugly and huge gap you aggressively create amidst us,

 

You fill our eyes with bitterness and sorrowful tears,

Breaking us to pieces that will never be recollected,

Our hearts agonize and cry restlessly,

The unbearable pain of separation kills us slowly,

 

You stab our hearts with a crave to harm us,

Our weak bodies shiver with pain of their loss,

And for no good reason, we never know how much we love them until they’re gone;

Crushing our feeble hearts into ashes,

 

You always feel the same way,

Regardless of place, age, gender or even social class,

Glaring images of them fill our intangible eyes;

A painful wish to enjoy their presence one more time,

 

The bitter truth echoes that we will never see them again;

Treasuring their moments remains our only bitter choice,

You painfully deprive us the love of our lives,

The only opportunity for our happiness,

 

The crave to embrace them and behold their kisses,

The desire to smile back with love irresistible,

Only to realize those bright days are long gone with the wind;

Exchanged with dark gloomy days full of agony and tears surround us,

 

You always feel the same way,

Regardless of place, age, gender or even social class,

The beauty of oneness is no more,

The laughter of joy and passion for life remains a puzzle,

 

Their absence yells loud in our midst;

The empty wish to see them will never die in our hearts,

And now we know; nothing good will ever come out of you;

You are the deadly monster that we dread,

 

But hear this clear from a butchered heart that no longer dreads you,

You are a looser and for this reason we rejoice,

We rejoice and our joy is complete,

Yes their bodies are lifeless and deep down buried,

But their souls you have no power over,

 

You always feel the same way,

Regardless of place, age, gender or even social class,

However we rejoice coz we know they are safe,

We rejoice because our union will soon be realized,

 

And forever we shall rule over you,

Don't you know you are defeated?

Yes you are,

Now and forever!
