Why

Why this world smiles? When it laughs from behind Showing respect and shaking hand Making an effort to be nice And finally deceiving Why this world offers help? When it is not an admirer and Does the work And a support that it gives And then it dupes Why this world treats well? When it knows it can reject And disqualify the best Why this world is beautiful? When it is very old and huge For many things it consists of Why this world respects? When it always argues For it can only mock Why this world shines? When it experiences the dark For the destruction and war that never stops Why this world is good? When it always highlights the bad and Never finds and rewards the good. Why the world so it is? When it knows so many people die of starvation and it never stops completely the dearth and eradicates poverty Why the world is termed as modern? When there is selfishness and segregation to remain separated.
