THE SAD REALITY

By SAHANA MANIKANDAN

I found a huge hole within my soul

In a heart filled with pain

Anything to cure it ended in vain

Life laughed and called me a fool

Myself, drowning in a sorrow pool

Shouting to save me from the pit

Could not come out of it a little bit

Saw many standing around me with a frown

Just waiting to see how I drown

“Help me help me” I screamed

Not ray of hope even in my dream.

All watched me without a bit of pity

I could see in eyes only a gleam of devility

“Oh! No one to save me? Seriously?”

I cried aloud and they watched me very curiously

There I witnessed to death of humanity

The end of love and care and sympathy

No more compassion and concern

Just a load of looks of stern.

Is it a sign of the end of the world?

I will see you all in our afterworld.

Then I may be in hell or heaven

And for sure, none of you in heaven.

Enter only are those with solicitude

Not for those who are ingratitude.

Remember you have time still

Use only your beautiful smiles to kill

And bury with your love all your fellow men

Or you will be sent to the crowd of madmen

Who beat and treat each other with hatred.

Be a human being worthy to be adored

Filled with serenity, tranquility and responsibility

Only then you will reach with your love the Almighty.
