Poem: The Troublemakers & Our fight!
There is injustice in this world, sometimes too much of it,
Matters so grave, those remain buried deep;
But also there’s this truth, No matter how hard we try,
We can’t get rid of troublemakers, this – there’s no way to deny!
Though troublemakers crush us, making us cry,
We have to fight the unjust, we must at least try!
At each stage in life, we may encounter despicable people,
Grit and grime, lies and crime, they’d still get away with evil;
Oh! So many of these, deviously lethal,
And yet they’ve been assigned roles, all sacred and ethereal!
Though troublemakers ruin our efforts, making us cry,
We have to fight the unjust, we must at least try!
The trouble makers may be given power & respectable positions,
Even though they’re miserably failing, they’re assigned higher designations,
The irony of the situation & mockery of the whole system,
Is when the highly unjust preach integrity but are far from its implications!
Though troublemakers distress us, making us cry,
We have to fight the unjust, we must at least try!
If there’s lessons to learn from those that teach,
We must learn to love & selflessly give,
To Thank those who helped us achieve,
To speak what we’ll exactly do,
To always stand by what is right!
To be real and truthfully ethical,
To use our hearts when being practical,
To spread happiness and never hate,
To work hard and never late,
To do exactly what is expected of us,
To stand by the truth and fight the perverse!
If this is what you always do,
The trouble makers can’t break you!
And even if they try scarring your soul;
Your irreproachable honesty makes you whole!
Though they’d compete with false complaints,
The emptiness in their heart remains;
So you must at least learnt to fight,
Coz even if you lose the battle,
You will have done what is right!
