The Words That Don'T Seems To Be

Is this land really going any further!
I ask but not to be answered 
Is my father's land really booming its 
                Perfume!!!

Oh! I set my gaze to the heights 
And I behold myself a shattered man with 
                Unreached dreams 

The father's say readers will lead 
                But is it so!!!

Now every turn to cyber brutality
Looking for cheap popularity
To find a space in this world 
But it will never contain their guilt

Though readers are leaders 
 And thy words have forsaken
Doesn't mean we should go into 
               Slander 

Though thy father's words has forsaken 
                Thy children 
We shouldn't eat the virtues of life 
For it has no everlasting peace, it's just for a moment 

Though leaders aren't born nor spoken 
But are built 
You can be a leader 
Not for followers
But for your esteem 

Build the virtues that you will long not to turn away 
Though in this era the quotes of greater men has left the 
                            recent earth 
              But we can rise for a change 

For a nobody 
That wants to become somebody 
Doesn't think like everybody 
To become somebody 

For the nobody 
That became somebody 
Didn't think like everybody
To become somebody

"Strive for progress and not perfection"
