A LIFELESS LIFE



A LIFELESS LIFE
I hoped it was a dream unrealizable
Poverty is the mother of evil perpetration
The evil perpetrators are not in the world for evil
Circumstances forced some to the stage of perpetration
Life challenges forcing many to the death zone

Where lays the hope of the weak?
Where lays the faith of the believers?
Where lays the future of the planners?
Where lays the home of the discomforts?

The young are getting old
The old are driven to the grave by the life demand
The time isn’t reversible still un-avoidable
No better mean for the less privileged to sustain
Still sustenance, a subject of necessity

Life is lifeless when you live in abject poverty
Our society is filled with deceits
Our homes are in disarray of artificial afflictions
Our land are being occupied by the un -just
Justice lives only in the grave

Oh, dearest future, any mean for survival?
Oh, the time, when would you turn us round for good?
Oh the stage, when will you set for us?
Oh the fortunes, where lays thy true face?

Still, we shall get it done.
Still we shall come out of it.
Still we shall wear the crown.
Still we shall get there soon.
The time begun now…!
