The Reflection of Reality

I think and wonder,
my heart thunders
with guilt and pain.

The reflection I see
in their cuts, scratches, and bruises
tells us the stories of suffering.

We sleep and see a dream,
but some are facing a nightmare in daylight.

The helper can’t help,
the supporter can’t support,
but the destroyer can destroy.

Somebody’s smile and laughter,
somebody’s dream and ambition,
and many lives...

The Decline of Humanity

See the world around yourself,
See the people around you—
The scary face of people,
The crying face of children.
They are scared, lonely, and sad.

They fear the world.
See the fearless around the world.
The mothers are crying with children in their hands,
Praying for their children’s life,
While others are praying for their children’s future
To be bright.

People say, “This is the way of living.”
If you don’t understand,
Then you will lose your life.
The world is watching around in silence—
Can’t we stand against this violence?

Their hands are coloured with blood.
Some of our hearts are filled with guiltWe are living—
They are bleeding.
We are eating—
They are starving.

Some say this is revenge...
But we are taking lives.

Destruction by Desires

It is said that after every hardship there comes ease,
It’s true, but what about the struggle they faced?

They gazed for help, but people stand amazed,
They were crying, starving, and cried for help.

The ship sailed with food, water, and hope in their heart,
But who knows ahead there are hurdles in their path?

They are crying, but tears also dried up with thirst,
People’s hearts are filled with hate and revenge,
Stones are softer as they break when it rains.

Humans are the most productive and constructive creature on Earth,
But also the most destructive — as they build a building or destroy it.

They make a promise or break it,
They share, but claim on something that is not theirs.

And when they fail in doing so,
They destroy generations, families, and a whole country.

The Anomalous Power

You see the man upright there,
screaming, shouting, and convincing,
wrapping around a lie with another,
playing with people’s minds forever.

The man upright there has a power —
unnoticed, misused, and unmatched
by anyone else.

He call himself as lucky and deserving,
the best one for serving his country.

They rule as if they are God.
They plan as if they are Lord.
But they are nothing more than a fraud.

There wanting
are as big as mountain.

There evil thought
flow like a fountain.

Now you see the man upright there.
