The Intruder

When life was moving soft and slow,

Was depressing and bit low,

Things were moving at slow pace,

Here came in the Intruder in this maddening race.

Made me laugh, made me cry,

I liked him lot but don’t know why,

Made me forget all the fears,

Showed me path of life more clear.

The intruder was sharp and droll,

I stood hearing him patiently till one day he growl,

Confused my insight and made it hazy,

I started thinking about him like crazy.

But then I realized the Intruder is deception,

He is here to kill my perception,

Unknowingly had altered myself his way,

Without realizing, it was complete dismay.

Got up, brought myself back in shape,

Asked the intruder to leave in haste,

Told him he had no time to waste,

The Intruder left and my peace was back.

My life again is set as it was,

Won’t let the intruders affect it at all,

But it’s no more sad and slow,

Fast and happy now it goes.
