Being Human

Being Human

Drafted by young men,

Crafted by brilliant minds, 

Extracted by us, the humans.

These values which came from within are now lost;

These values which made a human sacrifice for another;

Have now disappeared.

"Being Human", this slogan;

No longer exists, in this materialistic world.

Care, love and affection, are these so called words, alive today?

How can a human burn another?

How can a child kill someone's father?

How??

Sentiments, feelings, emotions, are all resting in peace today,

These are of no worth today;

Money is buying everything, even humanity;

Everyone of us is a mere animal today;

Bothered about one's own self.

Me, my, myself are the only words,

Which first approach us.

Seeing a blind woman crossing the road;

No helping hand clutches her fingers.

Our staring eyes, just go on staring the lady with a stick.

Now if this is humanity,

Aren't animals way better?

Urging to be human;

There it exists, 

Where each one of us can see through the vision.

It's our heart,

The same heart, which cried when it hurt another,

The heart which just circulates blood now.

That heart which wants to awaken,

The human inside each one of us.

Give love, take love.

Give Respect, take respect,

Respect human values and be,

A HUMAN once again!
