How Can We

We live in this world as if we own this place
We behave as if we are the masters of our fate
We talk, we walk , we act like kings
But every day, every single moment 
We are make aware of our bit
We have no power
We don’t even matter
We were sent without our consent 
Our lives will be taken without any warrant 
At one moment we are like gods
At another we are dust
Our mind, heart, pride, arrogance, attitude, love, loath, passion
Everything becomes dreck
Yet we fight, argue, hurt and squish others 
Yet there are wars, hostilities and masacare
Why do we forget?
How can we??
