What Is Good/Bad?

By Anshi Awasthi

Do you know?

What is good or bad?

Or is just me who is getting mad?

Is it good to be good?

Or we should be taught to be bad from childhood?

I am tired of being nice.

Or do I have another choice?

I thought of this as far as I could.

To find out where I stood.

I think I am in the middle of this vast sea.

From where I can never flee.

But at the end I had to make a choice.

Is it that bad to be nice?

I selected it all over again.

To go through same misery and pain.

Being nice was not at all easy.

It was zig-zag and squeezy.

But there is someone who is watching us all.

Someday he will appreciate me for being this tall.

I am waiting for one such day.

When he will come to me and say.

“No need to worry.

I was not in a hurry.

I made you the best.

To make you unique from the rest.”
