Part 11 - Hopeless


The forest was coated with flushed florals

Soaked in blazing rays of lilac laurels

Vivid hues, and ornate iridescence

Mocked the creatures, at their own expense

 

Having revealed his true character

The peacock adorned no more color

Being released from her dreary jail

The rainbow butterfly's life availed

 

The black cat, she pursued and struggled for

His calmness, she yearned and craved even more

Yet when he embraced her attractions

His love, she was with blank reactions

 

Deprived of sensations, she turned numb

She shattered his feelings into crumbs

Confined by emotions, he was Hopeless

He wished his mind would turn Memoryless
