I am in ruins, or maybe not. You may opine otherwise and
rightfully so. There's more to me than meets the eye, and here's why. Why
should I bother, you think of me as just another of those dilapidated pieces
which are of no muse.
Well let me tell you anyway, and mind you its simply out of
pity for your curiosity and not self-gloating. I have been pondering upon the
thought that why people never really gave me a thought as they passed by- why
was I sealed off and left just as an ornament adorning this house. How much I
loathe that fateful day, one can only wonder.
Remember those days
masters? Remember how you would come to me whenever you had a dilemma of
choices. It was I who would lead you to where you wished to go- heaven, hell,
and world. Your only distraction, one you couldn't stop musing about.
The only time you
went the world way was when you wanted to feel devastated- those self-exploding
times.
Always thought of the
world to be the balance of heaven and hell, but much to my bewilderment you
would claim not so.
Please tell me what
is so ravaging about this place called 'world'- I never seemed to fathom it.
Please?
“Man.”
"Yes?"
“Yes!”
"Okay. Give me time to imbibe that."
“You've got all you can take.”
After days of flabbergastation, I come to grips with this; I
have only him to trust. I see that smile on his face which seems almost
sanctimonious, but i push away the thought.
Perhaps he is right, for I've seen man doing all sorts of
nasty things to the world around him, thinking of himself to be oh so great,
which are anything but right. He's been gifted with reason, unlike any other
living being, yet he keeps wanting. Is he actually oblivious to the
repercussions of ever-wanting or only too self-complacent? Perhaps it's his
lack of knowledge; well they say the less one knows, the more stubbornly they
know it.
Humour me master, I don't want to be left disgruntled.
Let’s not be judgmental, least of all about something that
does not concern me, rather, us.
Why'd you leave, why can't I be the mode to your random ways
no more?
Is this what is to become of me- ruins.
Been waiting for my answers since time immemorial. And only
time shall absolve my state of desertion; know that I'm not just a debilitated
door.
I am worth all your muse and much more.
I still am the three ways and one choice.
