The cupid has a brother too,

The love and time are the two brothers born at a same time.

The cupid has a brother

Once I met a drunkard in the way,
he consumes everything as elders say,
Beware of him,he staggers to cheat
and tempts the heart with beauty and wit;
He has a brother, a thief well known,
he spares nothing,not skin nor bone,
like a rat he cuts,doesn't let you know,
flies in the air like wind on the snow;
brothers twin are they,work not same,
one calls the prey,other kills the game;
one spreads the net to trap a catch,
other hunts with smile,has no match;
helpless cries the prey and laughs the elder,
breathless lies it against the younger.........

Author's Note

The twin brothers ,love and time has different styles to reach to their prey but both work together and ultimately the sufferer falls against their treachery.......
