Frustrated!

16-08-04

Why is life so busy?
No time to relax; no time to breathe,
Working, studying, shopping, outing,
Where is worship; what about faith?

Why is life so boring?
Seeking, finding bodily pleasures,
Chasing wealth through endless measures,
Been everywhere; done it all,
Nothing’s new; a monotonous roll,
Where are virtues; what about manners?

Why is life so demanding?
Living by ads; conformation,
Peer pressure; affirmation,
Following crowds; primal urges,
Anarchy rules, crime surges,
Where is self-pride; what about honours?

Why is life so draining?
Always taking, grabbing, pinching,
Centre of attention; all seeking
Nobody’s willing to spare or share
Where is giving; what about care?

It won’t get better;
If we do not change
And our life we must rearrange.
