The world is full of liars and fakes
Face to face they project a smiling aura
But they are a scary bunch of snakes
They can inflict sufferings in plethora
They enjoy, sneer like evil from hell
For every deed done so innocently
Making their victims painfully unwell
Forcing them to accept cruelties quietly
Why the bad prosper in their iniquities?
And enjoy life of pride and prejudice
While their victims feel harsh realities
Afraid to face the world of bullies
I pray that God will punish the wicked
And save the people from the crooked!

ReplyDeleteI think each of us has met someone like this on our way. I can tell that... We should just leave such people behind us and move on keeping our head lifted... Powerful words!
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the many times i am heartbroken when uncaring words crush my soul. Sometimes the hurt is viciously intentional and that is when it hurts the most. Loved your lines!

ReplyDeleteYes, there are many harsh realities in this life--I think everyone can relate to meeting up with some of these types of people. You've heard the saying, "What goes around comes around." What you put out, you get back.
ReplyDeleteDear Amity,
ReplyDeleteNamaskar!Good Afternoon!
Among the bad,I try to see the good........
There is a silver lining behind the dark clouds....
As bloggers we can bring out awareness
Against the vices of this world....................
Well written verses....................
Wishing you a wonderful day ahead,

"Harsh Reality," is an excellent work of art. You have described a scenario, feelings and thoughts we all must witness. I really like the way this poem was created, it is all coming from truth. Find your soul and write from it once a word appears. You have that gift.
ReplyDeleteSo true. Life came be tough and unfair, at times. But. through those adversities, we grow closer to who we are supposed to become. Wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteThe wicked are rarely punished and they take pride in it.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad, the situation of today's world where there is a dearth of humanity and conscience.
However, the good shall prevail in the bigger picture.
Life is wicked. Great work!
ReplyDeleteYes, one comes across all sort of people in life.
ReplyDeleteNot been to my blog since long. Awaiting yr visit. :)
