ENEMY No. 6

By Roshmi Bhaumik

Slithering slowly

Sneaky snake

A quick grab at the neck

 

Choking emotions

Warped reality

Squeezing out natural felicity

 

Gruesome face

Sick, uneasy

Here comes JEALOUSY!

 

Poisonous cloud

Infected mind

Trust, patience left behind

 

Asphyxiating fear

Indelible doubt

Unfulfilled heart, seeking out

 

Deceptive camouflage

False temptation

Leading in wayward direction

 

Calm surrender

Que sera sera

Smirking at elaborate drama

 

Protective armor

Magical shell

Finding within, the hidden jewel.
