Kill Him Before He Kills You Poem by Abdul Wahab

Kill Him Before He Kills You

Rating: 4.5


Perhaps here there is none
With out a desire

a desire for happiness
I have one, too
but it is totally different from you

and if that is not fulfilled
you are led to the world

where the work of you itself turns into anger
but I remain cool

as mine is out of happiness
and that of yours out of conclusion
that you are not happy

and I find my content
which is here within myself

but you are under captivation
and never allowed to look into yourself

the desire for happiness is itself
an obstacle to attain it like

a Buddha who is a hurdle
to a Buddhist

as he follows him
and he kills his uniqueness

so KILL him before he kills
you and your ways of happiness

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

Desire is the root cause of human misery! ! Those who annihilate desire completely become Buddhas. For an average man, it is not possible to kill all desires. But it is possible for everyone not to let desires conquer him! Philosophical and profound! ! Enjoyed! !

Unclean desires are required to be killed. You may become a human then.. Killing all desires (which one may not be able to) makes one Buddha (the desireless) . A poem with a message.
