Befriended Serpent

poem about friendship betrayal

Befriended Serpent

Your beautiful discourse of friendship inspired
Unsuspected joy in our journey, dear friend.
The grandness of your reassurance left me in perplexes.
The unshackling of my chains you bestowed on me, dear friend,
Uplifted my heavy yoke.

We flowed like the open stream surrounded by all that is natural
Beneath the fisherman we marvel at them, like fish we wearied the bait,
Forewarn each other.
We toiled with joy and felicitous chains binding us into one
All is but left behind, disputes we pacifist, thus
You revealed my true countenance and knew my incognito
Unveiled my insecurities
My insensitivity
My calamity
Thus minds alike contrive alike, one soul occupied two physicality
One supporting the other and qualms relinquished.
The relation was well rooted
Unearthing the holy orchid
My being was totally nonchalant and brassy in bondage

Till ‘the rainy sunrise descended, the sun blazing
Emptied the stream and all was fading
You unveiled your true self, the cloth was uplifted
The phantom re-imaged.
Your beneath was a serpent
Like a wild beast your vices was hidden from me since birth
Your large fangs, slithering texture and red gauging eyes
Left me perplexed
Gasping for breath like an unearthed fish
Death of the open stream
Joyous triumph from the fisherman
I am his spoil
While you stood steadfast
Priding at my discomfort
