A cold day in July



A cold day in July...

Woke up before the day after the fair
It was harmed by a very painful pain
When asking for renewal of the contract
Denied request led it in dim lights of left lung
Pushing and pulling of side ribs harder,
And slowly as the pace of chameleon
It really felt the presence of devil
Since pain was hitting continuously , as
The burning fire of hell

Contrary to it's feelings
Oppressor seemed oppressing intentionally
Attempting to contaminate it's endless Love for her
But why actually?
Why didn't you reconsider it's request and dwell on it?

Though a smooth sea never made a skilled traitor
Thus so experienced, learned,and accepted I did
Sincerely a foolish consistency is hobgoblin of little minds...
