Recipient At Destiny's Doorstep
Images roll daily trampled by incivility
Far away enough yet close to humanity
Mired by evil, engrossed in misery
Where being born feels like a tragedy.
Longing for mercy, smile tries to emerge
Straining weary mind every grin hurts
Yet, life goes on unfazed by distress
Amid stormy rain wishing for a sunny day.
Untouched by pain world disdain reigns,
Forlorn eyes concede burden of debt
Paying it with pride extracted from dignity
For being a recipient at destiny's doorstep.
