HELLISH DANCE
By the time we're old enough to start understanding,
we're woven into this life that's so demanding,
we can't make any informed decisions,
we're never given time to do revisions.
We don't understand the importance of morals,
keeping pure and away from all quarrels,
we don't understand the importance of virtues,
how it keeps us safe from all the dark issues.
Nobody teaches us for what to look,
it's all in code written in some book,
by the time we're old enough to understand,
we're already trapped in the sinking sand.
We fight and cry and scream for help,
as we drown in the ocean our feet wrapped in kelp,
we never even stood a chance,
we were simply dragged into this hellish dance.
