My friend

deceipt,dereliction, derision

can daunt me ever not.
however mean you turn
 i shall descend to meanness not.
you slave to cunnengness and
feign greatness friend.
i visualize myslef and
try to mend my ways.
you swot,suffer and toil
for you solely wish to spoil
my all efforts i humbly make.
my noble will you can not break.
you espoused envy and filth,
i embraced piety and love,
both of us have pined
you for envy and i for love.
