Cruel One

Such a cruel master
Calls himself laster
Is he here to stay forever?
You can not take him as a lover
He will crack you till later
You will feel no life after
He's nobody so knows nobody's chatter
His is just to scatter
And clear away your laughter
He will cut your portion into the gutter
And make you feel no longer
That's the more he feels stronger
He is not ready to change character
Nor leave our lavenda
Rather makes our sorrows greater
How was he made a part of nature?
In who's authority is he to shatter?
Until it knocks on your door you might not understand why we get madder
And speak out louder
It hurts and bites our bladder
We feel we are no body at this genture
Everyone must always be ready for the caller.
