A word of affection

Will you stop me from being bad
By beating me
By depriving me of food
By suspending my fundamental rights?
Then listen, you are expecting the impossible
Howsoever hard you may hit
You will not be able to amend me
For you are worse than me
Probably worst of all human being
Only a word is enough for me to amend
The word of affection
Which you have lost somewhere
In the labyrinth of your false pride.
