  • 'us' to 'me'

    I was a fish ,in a small pond,
    The pond made me feel strong,
    The world was so lil', the truth was constrained
    Clues were lil' and renditions were abound.
    lil' problems, lil' competition.
    Big emotions, Big expectations.
    Priorities were humane, emotions were pure,
    Materialism, hatred ,bigotry didnt lure.
    There was a 'Us'.
    A step up, and whoa!, I was figting for my breath
    I was left unmoved, undead, cold to the grate.
    There was awful lot of empty space, but I couldnt move,
    I couldnt find an angel, in the zombie's slew.
    To fly away with, to a distant world,
    A genuine universe of trust and love.
    Self Truism, Self centerism, Self-critical ,Self-protecting,
    Self made,Self-drenched, Self living, Self Destroying.
    Heck with others, go to hell or heaven, They dont care,
    trying to just survive, trapped in their life' snare.
    what is life -- the 9 to 5. pay the bills and die?
    the false prides, the prejudice and the lie,
    the fabrics of mistrust, woven into our thought culture,
    feeding on misery, the materialistic vulture.
    the lone reed of love on the sand of mistrust
    waving to the waves of emotions, heart's thirst.
    There was a 'Me'.
