That Is Humanity 2

An injured man
Was lying by the side
Of the road
Moaning and groaning
Stretching a pitiable hand
For a help
I cast a casual look
And like other passers by
Ignoring his painful cry
Walked passéd by
But all of a sudden
I heard something has broken
In my heart’s mansion
And through that crack
Something unknown 
Was pulling me back
Towards the cries
As if the power of infinity
Showing me 
The path of dignity
That was none but humanity
