"Nursery Rhyme of the Ghost" By my footsteps I was led to a man's last ever bed after many years i paid visit to the body of a soul, misfit friendless even in neighbourhood so innocent yet so misunderstood In morality's wall, a clean brick shoes of false kings, didn't lick Since a true tongue has to prick he won titles of insane and sick His vehemence could've led him to stars People's venom denied him of going far they made his heart full of scars as if he was an alien from mars though to tribulations, he was prone tirelessly he would serve, not moan Despite sitting beside the grave I couldn't pray or calmly behave Restless to discover his name even if many ended the same Couldn't read words on the stone By wind of time they were blown But just as I thought to leave what I saw I couldn't believe The writing on that wall Made me shiver and fall Shock turned me nill I just laid there, still It wasn't a haunted hill Or my father's lost will Due to humans that had wandered ill the corpse belonged to myself, Aadil.
