Realities

a world so real yet feels so fake

a thorny path appears to be a piece of cake

wherever one seems to look is a new mystery

a treacherous present and a bitter history

 

no soul in this world seems to be pure

attracted so easily to the slightest lure

even a truthful resolve is distracted

walking a straight line without being slanted

 

these dark clouds don't seem to have a silver lining

yet in every heart a weak flame keeps burning

though weakened by the wind's aghast

is it strong enough to burn till the very last?

 

hope it seems is not yet lost in our souls

even if we are far away from our goals

every new day brings courage to face hostilities

in this amazing world full of realities...
