To quote Athos from "The Three Musketeers" "You are not a woman You are a demon escaped from Hell" When I first met you as a colleague I made the mistake Of getting friendly with you When I should have ensured That our relationship was going to be strictly professional Of course, you had your own ways Of charming those whom you came in contact with That is something for which I have to give you credit Albeit grudgingly And you were an expert At playing the victim card Nevertheless, after I changed jobs I thought I had seen the last of you However, you came back into my life As unexpectedly as the recent rains in Chennai Initially, it seemed kind of sweet However, I should have realised sooner That you had certain ulterior motives Unfortunately, I got fooled by your sweet talk And started helping you financially Because you looked up to me as a brother I never doubted you in the slightest Which was probably the biggest mistake of my life You took advantage of me In the worst way possible And kept draining my bank account Your lies kept getting taller and taller And I kept believing them Because, you had me well and truly under your thumb However, even the most credulous person in the world Can develop suspicions at some stage Thus, after years of being in a psychological coma I finally managed to wake up to the harsh reality And told my family everything Of course, with the help of a dear family friend After we finally confronted you You signed a written agreement Promising to return all my money Within a certain deadline That deadline has long since passed And you have not paid even ten percent of your dues What is worse Is the fact that you are absconding And giving absolutely nonsensical reasons Which even an utter fool would find it difficult to believe You ruined my life Destroyed my happiness And shattered my self-confidence Is this the way you treat a person Whom you have addressed as "brother" Not once, not twice, but several times? I am giving you one last chance Not for your sake But for the sake of humanity You had better take it Because, if not Then you will soon find yourself in prison Again, to quote Athos "You are not a woman You are a demon escaped from Hell"

You Are Not A Woman

Those midnight memories still haunts me today, I still remember what we were that beautous day. With silence spread all over the valley, You came to my house without a dally. I felt my heart beating out my chest, But hugging you after entrant brought it to rest. Everything was going so perfect just like a dream, And you started to come really close with such a glee. My mind got numb as i was scared from this all, But you said you will always be mine after this all. With kisses so right and fingers crossed tight, I exposed you all that glooming night. Your fingers running all over me exploring my waves, I gave you my soul before you craved. In between all we said i love you again and again, And you said if i forgot you, you would regain. All the promises you made told me that you'll stay, But little did i know it was a ****** play! I thought i was only girl who was supposed to be your life, But their was another girl whom you called her your wife. You broke me all and vanished with a glare, And i complained to god because that was not so fair. Throwing your feelings on me you completed your sake of desire, But what do i do with my feeling now that got so despair. I screamed, i cried why you did this to me, You said nothing and left all alone by me. After such a long time you realised your mistake but we didn't patched up again, Because you loved that girl and i hope so not if you do that again.

Those midnight memories!
Wonder how they came up ahead of me… she’d been leaking information to the enemy. A double agent. She loves me but it can’t be helped. It is her nature. Well don’t you know, my seductive charming spy mistress, that the fuse is lit. Your behavior, a recipe for calamity. We might be the epicenter, ground zero, but no one shall be spared. Everyone involved will be affected. A 360 degree firestorm of shrapnel. Just because. You needed more… to feel more beautiful, more wanted, more seductive, by more parties. Never enough. More. Love lies spilling guts, from the mess up still partially beautiful. Face almost calm, not contorted. Pain is numbed as she disintegrates like vapour. But we’ve become a desert and it will not rain back for centuries.

Sabotage
Outside the tower In fear people cower Outside that they call the slums Where people were nothing but bums Till one day you are called inside they say the tower you must climb you are chosen they say there is a role you will need to portray you need to conquer this 300+ floored tower And at the top they promise A land full of promise A wish will be granted You'll have anything you wanted You then build dreams as high as the tower Only to find disappointment outside they call you chosen inside they call you a regular Along with people that were also "chosen" You must climb with them live with them befriend them Fight them Betray them **** them Step on them to climb those same people as you those same people who were chosen those same people who were called regulars those same people that share dreams as you you need to beat them and carry the weight of betrayals to climb on top will you still accept the title of a REGULAR?
