A Better Hope
This world sounds gloomy,
And all these worldly pleasures makes me tired!
The one I thought really great has now become trivial!
There is no real value, everything has a price!
These birds are happy though,
They have to search their food everyday!
The thought of everything is replaced,
By the feeling of nothing!
I trusted you with all my heart,
Though you never bothered to trust me!
When I gave you all the powers,
You never thought I deserve any recognition!
I could have helped many, consciously
And might have harmed few unknowingly!
Those whom I helped never remembered the same!
Those who were hurt never forgotten the same!
This life is a maze, hard to solve the riddle!
Love and affection is only in theory, a nice one to read!
The possibility of goodness drained for now!
It is just the hope that keeps me going!
