Trapped

He is stalking at me
through the dense canopy of vanity!
His steps are derisively following mine
chanting its unending disastrous
hymn of terror!!
His poisonous enchantment is
hypnotizing my inner conscience!
I am getting trapped in
the world of obscurity!!!

He is darker than the darkest night,
mightier than the tempest wound.
His cruelty knows no bound,
His tyranny knows no restriction!
His rapacity is darkening
my world of composure.
Oh God!! Save me from this wicked demon!
He is imprisoning me behind the bars
of venomous desire!!!

I want to get flee from him
but my own avarice drags me
to his feet whenever I try to escape!
My tedious egoism agonizes me
whenever I try to evade from this
land of sinfulness!

I can’t
No! I can’t defeat him,
I can’t get liberated from
his despotic clutch.
My conscience is flapping to
get emancipated from him
but my atrocity is hugging him firmer!
Day by day,
I am getting immersed in his
ocean of evil darkness!!!
