With unholy eagerness, the words were gathered
Their origin and values misconstrued due to a dearth of time
Harrowingly pulled to be presented under the limelight
When it becomes natural to please the rapacious demands
Indulgence in the superficial composition is a secret joy
Charming they may read due to the heavy adornments
Those you cannot love dearly but eager to release them soon
Youthful exuberance and pressures of time hold the clue
Designs to abduct fame from the progressing misadventures
Only the best survive amidst the erosion of time and age
Destiny circumscribed by the wild desires of mankind
Interpretations require introspection like a profound meditation
Do not alter their meanings to the order of an evil Monarch
Loyalty to the words are not enough when they are wronged
Unthoughtful idolatry means nothing for them in the future
