Road to hell

Road to hell

Paved with love and guided with history,

Advertized as pleasure and shown a necessity,

Such is the road to hell,  beautiful in presentation

A terrible bumpy ride that has zero survival rate.

A wicked creation with the first ending in disaster,

To satisfy urges the lie was born to keep order,

This is the highway to death, divine in appearance

A man eating contraption that finishes all adventurers.

Love is such a terrible reason for taking decisions,

No matter how swooned a lion is, a lamb remains a tasty meal,

That is the reality of lies, deceptive in intentions

The life of one should not be in that of another!

Bring out the books and let witnesses bear testimony

Till death do us part when you know all it takes is an argument,

Thus the generational myth was born, sustained by silence

I thought it was said all liars would go to hell!

Please tell me, why live imprisoned and bask in euphoria?

Isn't self deception the gravest of all offences?

Who gains from a union of sworn enemies?

The war mongers or the perprtuating voices?

To be me is not easy, to be understood so daunting,

An out may not be a door,  the window sometimes a better escape

Who jumps from high rise building without a chute?

Those who need to live and have to leave.

Stop lying to me please, hell is a duet not a solo!
