Does Anybody Care

When the sun is too clouded
Does a bad job at the place of work
We keep on searching for umbrellas
Rather than getting soaked , again.

When at night, no father, mother, sister or brother
Shadows haunt your body and soul
We keep on searching for us, inside
Death is not so easy to come by.

When theology gets you upside down
Fixes your lonely spot, on a passive whim
I get erased from us, for a better and noble cause
Does anybody ever care, anyway?
