Road To Dilemma



When at jumping-jumping singing nursery rhymes
He asked me what the road that leads to dilemma is
Being childish I trivialized the unforeseen paradox
As I grow older do I ruminate on these things over me?
Which road might lead to my predicaments even in seclusion?
So might I standing on these pleasant leas
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn avoiding the road
I learnt it was inevitable except to be on the pulpit
Now do I got the monster bothering my soul
Am agile now hoping to put one in the family way
I met roses in diversity and multifarious in the crannies
All with harmonized songs of marital vehementness kami-kami-kami
Now do I understand the emotions and soliloquy there is no one
Greater than the one am dining with precisely
Being upset and distressed breaking my eyes and picked one unknown
Now do I knew out of all the home remedies
A good better half is the best
For me she causes my banes around everyday
If I had my eyes opened then, I could not have in that wilderness
I have fallen in the trap of Delilah love
Regret I knew softens not the groan but perplexes
I knew it is never a song we sing twice
Lest you come short of the commands in that holy book
I keep under my pillow when tormented from dreams
So as to be overwhelmed with rectitude when he comes
Unarguably have I cleaved to my fate inevitable?
