Hopeless

When mothers are delightful to deliver a male child 
And fathers feel huge pressure to see a new born female child  
The Almighty is hopeless !

When people are busy for more money 
And children are growing to destroy their childhood 
The Almighty is hopeless !

When political leaders leave to the king of policies  
And democratic people are silent for personal interests 
The Almighty is hopeless !

When Temples , mosques , churches are captured by communal forces 
And religious people forget to their original religion which is humanity 
The Almighty is hopeless !

When truth is defeated by untruth 
The Almighty is silent and The Sun rises in the east .
I am hopeless !

Fortunately in the end truth will prevail and light will banish the darkness. Evil will be triumphant for a time yet I am confidant through all things God continues to be God and he will have the last word. This is a thought provoking piece, bravo!
