The battle already lost!


Confused, amazed, aroused
I look at the knife on a far table
The edges seems blurred
But the handle is clear
The weak papaya besides it
Sit in contemplation
Reminding him of his bad luck
To trip in the hands of his predator...

The life had started with a small bud
Who wanted to befriend all
On his journey to adultery
He found thorns everywhere
Others wanting to slit his neck
Pluck his seeds and throw him away...

He fought his battle well
And felt proud at his scars
It was this time
He saw a pink, yellow flower at a tree
She looked like a princess
And his heart fell in the sea
But difficult was this love
The flower was already owned...

Flower gave him a reason to smile
And this smile gave him a reason to die
The owner loved the ripened papaya
And lusted at its youth...

Now he sits alongside a knife
Ready to get dripped in pain
This pain looks sweet
Dying in front of his beloved
He closed his eyes
And left with ease.
