I Found You

As I travel, take this journey called life,

I come to know of all the strife

Required to live this through,

And the lies I thought were true

All my beliefs were slayed, cut through with a knife

I knew the corrupts exist, but not that they were in such a rife

Hate they had, hate they grew

Hate was their aim, hate they strew

Not taradiddle, plain open conspiracies, mind you!

I lost my senses, I already had only one small slice

As I looked closer, even that had been eaten thrice

I’ll never trust anyone, I heard myself say

That promise to myself, I did hold until that day

When as a happy interlude, I found someone, you!

My trust recurred – I was ecstatic, but oh, the time just flew

I’m glad we met and will always be

For the friend I’ve found in you, the one I’ll always long to see.
