Beneath the grey sky

a sea of people left to die 

 

One alone for another 

Peace found in destruction 

we destroy and aid our brother 

 

Nescience and innocent children at stake 

relentless fueds for sweet nectar 

 

Given support yet exploitation no end 

SOURCES ARE DEVOID OF WHY DEPLETING RESOURCES 

 

voices  are surpressed and reign is in mights 

Retrograde once again,  time cannot be brought back 

 

Our home does not show because soundless are its dying groans 

Like fragments of sand escaping one’s hand we ebb away into time 

 

cold winds brush against each face leaving us bleak 

I drift apart from myself and all that is left is a ripple silent sigh 

We are receding.....


The author's comments:

In this world of greed , malice , corruption exploitation, destruction and the pain that man has inflicted upon nature , this poem talks about the same while highlighting the that man has forgotten the sole essence of life .To be happy , to love , to live and cherish each moment .He has become selfish and self entered , while completely neglecting social good and benefiting the society . The world and it’s people are changing and only for the worse . We are receding and ebbing away into time , humanity is only leading to its drastic culmination
