Where Is Peace

Where is Peace

World in progress racing fast
Every thing but peace is lost

Nights are bright like day time
No peace of mind though world is rise

Hearts are hopeless, fear in voice
No peace of minds though world is wise

In the noisy world of today
To some extent there is comfort
But peace of mind is very short

In miser world of today
Money is every thing
Corruption is success ring

In this cruel world of today
Atom bomb is devil king
When blasts off ruins every thing

In this dark world of today
Where world is flourishing at high rank
But they should know very soon it will sink

Thoughts are materialistic minds are confused
Every face is haggard and by heart very rigid

Far away from nature
Like a stooge and puppets in theater

World in progress racing fast
Every thing but peace is lost

Can you tell me where is peace?
Except Allah (God) nothing can make us please.

Nadia, I do agree with you that we have corruption and have gotten far away from what is important in the grand scheme of life. You have a dramatic way of saying all of this. Pakastan's troubles should concern all of us.

The whole world is in the hands of corruption. Peace is drifting away from the world, because every one is busy in the progress of weapons & nuclear weapons, preparing themselves for evil wars. & running towards artificial life. Artificial intelligence is uplifting. Not only Pakistan is in trouble but whole world and nature.
