The Monster blue whale

The Monster blue whale

Remember, it is a trap, inescapable and baffling.
It exploits innocence, and imbibes fake confidence in you, dares you the impossible, unnatural,
Children, I warn you- The monster blue whale is coming. 

The deadly game, cuts you off from your loved ones.
Pushes you into the darkest of dungeons,deviates you from your life's real goal.
It foolishly inspires you to sacrifice your body.
All for what? Absolutely Nothing.
I warn you, the monster blue whale is coming

If you love dares, let me spell out Children,
You all have one. That's called Life. 
It is full of challenges, adventures and brevity. 
The only difference being-it is one of the most takeable of goads. 
Do not fall a prey to something as unworthy and small. Dare on Life, man! 
Children, I warn you- The monster blue whale is coming. 

Remember, just remember, the pain and sacrifices of your dearest,
To grant you the best.
Haven't  you been their biggest dare? Have they given up on you? And, they'd never do. 
Here, take a deep breath, and tell yourself- Some Psychopath out there cannot take me away from you. 
Children, I warn you- The monster  whale is coming. 

The Blue Whale ain't any Hero, 
It is a beast waiting to suck you and gulp you into a deep non returnable gorge. The death it awards, equally  gory and unhailed. 
If at all, you wish to lay your life, 
Do it for your country, become a soldier. Serve the poor, assist the meek,  pledge to protect the weak.
That, i say, will be a matter of pride. 
Children I warn you.....

Be ready to catch it,, nail it, squeeze the hell out of it-Oh, the monster blue whale! Then and there. 
From now on, 
That 's your biggest dare.
