Prevention Is Better Than Cure
Under the wheel of time
we are in threat
"AIDS" is roaring
like a wild tiger,
jailed in a cage.
Attacking us
with sharp teeth & nail.
We are human beings
we are having a brain
we are having AK-47
But, with extreme poignant
and profound grief,
It is revealed that-
we could not shoot it out
It's a challenge,
it's a threat......
I have seen very close,
People captured by that evil
looking like skeleton
covered with a skin.
It's a curse, It's a sin.
Their eyes are fitted in two pots
containing a glass of tear.
Please don't chide them,
they are shuddering
just with shame and fear.
They are living like a dead body
with no hope and no future.
We are human beings-
we are having truth
we are having trust
Time will come, "AIDS"
you have to hands up,
you have to surrender.
But in my view,
it is better to follow,
"Prevention is better than cure".
