Eye for an Eye

Eye for an eye says the law here
your tears dont wash away your crime here
crime is rather a big word to use as all you did was a minor act...
a minor act not intentional,which was purely accidental
even before you gave a second thought to your actions
even before you realised the folly you made
the crime is committed
the big bad world is all set to pass the judgement on the "crime" you committed
whether intentional or foolish
you have a price to pay a price so high a price so dear it might cost you your life but your crime will not be forgiven unless you are made to suffer
unless your blood is spilled out in the form of your tears
an act so silly an act so foolish an act so innocent
has been written down for ever as a crime so huge a blunder never to be committed...never ever in scarlet blood oozing from the wounds cut through your skin by the lashes of the whip sported by the protector of law in this big bad world
you may beg and plead for mercy but the law so keen on punishing you so keen on making you straight puts it on a deaf ear.....defended by the cheers of its supporters snarling at you for being so innocent, for not being one of them filling your heart with the venom that poisoned their souls
One day these wounds might heal leaving just the scars to sink into your skin and heart....
the world might forget its devilry only filling you with contempt....
somewhere around the corner another foolish act is committed, another innocent fool is at the mercy of the world....
will you stand up for him or cheer heartlessly at the misery your fellow fool is put through??
will your suffering make you wise or the venom sunk deep into your soul makes you think otherwise
will you choose to stand against the big bad world or are you the big bad world??
