THE WORLD APART

 

THE WORLD APART

Fear hunts, death prowls, and life runs,
Perpetual darkness, the Sun is clouded,
Steals the right path, crisscross, trouble,
Volatile courage challenges smuggle, (1)

Ferocious animal humans act as beasts,
Merciless heart massacre life find tryst,
Discrimination, violence, and loot rules,
Scary nights and terrible days continue. (2)

War follows, uprooted humans' plight,
Anarchy, autocracy control, feel delight,
Hunger sickness, miserable life protest,
The avenger not in insight and protect, (3)

Climate and the catastrophe destroy,
Vanishing green Earth rivers and annoy,
The chasm separates the golden world,
Peace and happiness pervade, no word, (4)

Perpetual love, trust, and coexistence,
The river of bond flow lacks resistance,
Peace and prosperity, the abode, song,
The symphony of life attracts, throng, (5)

Unknown in the land, pain and sorrow,
The pleasure, comfort, luxury borrow,
Noticeable, enticing smile, inviting posture,
Warm comradely embrace gesture, (6)

Eternal light, knowledge, literacy grow,
An enlightened soul visualizes and knows,
Acknowledge service to the need, seed,
Interpret acts, service to God, indeed, (7)

Impossible to cross, the world apart,
The cherished aspects heal, impact,
Jump over the gorge, a mirage, a wall,
From devastation to dreams, prevail. (viii)
