Lament of My Life

Lament of my life If something I could do to change this world, A drop in ocean although must have changed some hues ... Learnings in time all through and through, Knowledge attained was far from real life basic needs, but Wasted were many years searching the unseen, while simple facts apparent I took to closed eyes, Had I fed the poor, Had I educated their kids, Had I known their grief The hunger, the poverty in itself graver than disease, Inequality a silent killer, Had I applied balm to the bruised souls, rather than just curing an ailment. Maybe it's time to change and feed my soul's hunger, A change of a doc's role, turning cards to a social healer, Try cure the problem, wholesome living in content for a cause !
