It’s the wicked world we live in
Obscured by different values we do or do not believe in.
Sacrifices, patience, benevolence are just mere words
Greed, avarice, cruelty rules the crust like lords of swords.
Searching true selves amidst these is like passing through labyrinth
That may cause confusion and dereliction within.
Going deep down we come across many cellars and crypts
That may hold the key to riddles of life, of dead’s and of myths
We might shake and shiver owing to the thought of what lay ahead of us
But there is always a glimmer of hope beyond this road to infernal region.
