The Book That Was Never Published
The writer left it there
He left if for the sharp minds
Hided it to the beggers
Sealed with the chains of wisdom
Those wet behind ears are astonished
They are taken aback about a useless book
They see no greatness from the book
The writer left stories that were never told
The stories of the greats and their secrets
Encrypt with codes to unlock the futures
Envy to bring back what people lost
But still they don’t notice and look beyond
This is the book that has our stories
The book that tells of the old age
Written to change your perception
Wrote for you to have appreciation
Would it take your time to read?
The book that never won any noble peace
But the book that have all the greats in-one
Teach me to see beyond the greedy
Take me into a place where you promise me
