We Are Then and Now

The peaceful place we were in before coming here
The comfortable bed we were on before coming here
Hygienic food we ate and drank before coming here  
Beautiful surroundings we enjoyed before coming here

Same place we are from
The same bed we slept on
Same food we ate and drank
Same surroundings we enjoyed

Now it’s a world, the same platform for everyone
Of birth and death, anyone is comparable to none
Yet, we become different, we become hypocrites
We are haters; we love to live in revengeful treat
