Enemy

Enemy

I decided to turn

Foes into friends

Love triumphs

Not hatred


Many came closer

And some exited

In few days time

No enemy existed


Only wall in room

Stood where it was

Did not move at all

I took it as enemy


I asked questions

It remained silent

I was convinced

Indeed it hated me


I punched it hard

It did not respond

Did thousand times

There wasn’t reply


I made it a habit

To punch everyday

>As many times

Time would allow


My fingers hurt

Blood on floor

I will not stop

Wanna answer


Yet no reaction

Sure it’s real foe

Want no explanation

Coz I am intelligent


I’m man of love

No known opponents

How this silly wall

Can be a hindrance?


When I feel pain

In body and heart

No doubt remains

It’s mocking at me


Every hole on wall

Stares at my eyes

One enemy yet rigid

I punch harder now
