The Berserk Situation

Shortly After The Reticent Recriminations Had Ceased,

My Heart Fluttered Violently,

Blocked All My Lines Of Thoughts

I Began To Chip Into Stammering,

Almost Shivering With Gibbering.

Light Of Heart Turned To Shimmer.

Then I Impromptu Started Drawling,

Inquisitively To Know How Serious He Was

The Narrator Meant Beyond Doubt What He Was Saying.

He Said It And Made His Own Way Back,

While I Was Standing There Dumbfounded,

Until When He Went Off My Faculty Of Sight With His White Garments

My Angel He Said Had Gotten Married,

At The Peak Of My Entanglement To Her Infatuation Of Love And Martyry.

My Heart Pounded A Little Tipsily To Struggle To Know How True It Was.

It Was True Beyond Any Doubt Cause

The Previous Conviviality Of The Meeting Turned Into Fury.

A Descending Deepen Meditation Fanned The Flames In My Heart’s Injury.

I Wish That My Mind Could Rebuff And Spurn The Bad Story,

But It Couldn’t Help To Be Conquered Simply

Then I Apostrophised The Question, “How Could She Have Done That To Me? Despite The Much Love Of Hers I Had With Me?”

The Situation Completely Turned Berserk;

For Nobody There Remained With Me To Soothe My Impinged Thoughts

To Save My Blood Pressure,

I Had To Stealthily Sauntered,

To My Bed-Chamber.

But How Could I Push That Thought Out Of My Mind That Clambered?

My Heart Increasingly Continued, Pouncing To Help My Breath In Its Efforts, To Shot Out Of Me,

But With A Feeble Effort To Prompt Sending Me Into The Bin

The Situation Was So Pathetic,

But I Quickly Managed To Regain My Consciousness,

By Telling Myself That That Is Not The End Of The World, Devoid Of Coyness

And That God Will Always Make the Best.
