People

By Ruhani Kothari

People judge, people criticize, 

People betray, they only fight, 

People are the ones

Who believe they rule the world,

Drowned in ego and darkness,

Ignoring everything they work….

They possess many emotions and thoughts,

Of grief and jealousy,

That leads to destruction

And impedes their minds,

And blocks their vision,

They stop thinking clear

And don’t realise who the one is to fear….

They mislead themselves and forget their path,

And follow the journey to greed and power,

The end is when the truth finally hits,

And then strikes like lightning,

At last they find the value in things 

That they had in life….

Oh! But it’s too late now,

The time is now gone….

The only time they could give their vows,

To the world they worship now,

And the least they can do 

Is to pray to God

To save their lives,

To get blessed by the mighty Lord….
