Soul is a witness to the good and bad,

Actions committed from ignorance

Or otherwise, silent onlooker as things pass  by.

Soul is assassin of fear, doubt, jealousy and greed

The wrong things that harm the mind and body

Soul acts as a savior of man from crimes,

He intends committing, acting as a guide

Cautioning him to desist from envy, anger

Keeps him pure,  a teacher guarding him ever.

Soul is immortal, associated with the Divine

It can’t be termed as an adjective of assassin

It qualifies nothing more sinister than this!

It comes with man and lives with him

And  continues to live in a different body.

This modern world lives in delusion

Loses its brilliance with such thoughts

Gets rusted igniting sulphurous images,

Filling mind with bundle of grotesque ideas!
