subtle kindle
The wars waged
The crimes committed
The heroes slain
The villains defeated
The egos hurt
The pride sustained
The sadness that erupted
The chaos contained
Nothing remained the same
No one left to blame
The thorns pricked
The heart that ached
The mind games
The tears encased
The complains that reverberated
The disdain that vaporized
Misunderstandings bloomed
Amidst a love terrified
Flowers of hope died to dust
Ties as chains fell prey to rust.
But amidst the manipulation
The tricks of the psyche
Amidst the wanton schemes
There lay a plot
So befitting, so refined
The mystery left unsolved
The unresolved twist in time
Was a suave trick in a game of knives
A sin to feel dead when fully alive.
