#bachelorhood
2012 passed away without much of ado.
Without much ado, without much ado.
The warnings were anything but true.
I conquered a remarkable triumph,
Yes, I conquered 14 out of 14 tests.
From not one but two semesters.
Even my parents,
They did not expect,
I'd clear so many tests.
But oh my mama, and baba,
I remember how you took care,
How you brought me back to life.
Do not exert yourselves needlessly,
Now take some rest, my parents,
Stop searching a bride for me.
I've realised I've got an ego issue.
After all those trials & errors of love,
I cannot ever share my life with a wife.

u
are
charming
& disarming,
but mostly ALARMING
since all my resolve
dissolved!
u
are
chic
as a sheikh's
harem girl in the sheets
but my castle’s no longer my own
and my kingdom is overthrown!

Morality isolates and fenders bend.
Circumference learns, “half-way” but fails to take the name
“Radius,”
And when she lay a meter nigh
With child, my child;
I still and will feel horribly alone.
Curse my iron fist and rusts the middle knuckle,
When another weeps, not for I, not for you but the gods assumed,
“Heaven,”
And 3 floors above my own;
Tucked lies the pain, regret fills fetal;
I still and will feel horribly alone.
So comes the autumn, the fire prior, “Styx,”
Upon borders that could only separate, “fatherhood,” so partitioned,
“Winter,”
And 3 floors below her own –
A pillar wrought persistence and abandoned, my hedonism;
I still and will feel horribly alone.
