Analysis of Selfish-minded
People who suffer from jealousy
Hurt and harm innocent ones
Such incidents change one's life
Selfish-minded plucks the flowers
Before blossoming of that
For exchanging only
With their thorns of motives
To cause pain and grief
For their sick pleasure
And ugly joy
Such cruelty that no one notices.
