Its a mad mad mad world............

Contributed by ravisada on Monday, 29th November 2004 @ 10:36:27 PM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles

I want to live peacefully in this world
but this mad world never allow me to do so
When I woke up in the morning the sun doesn't arise
When I go to bed in the night the moon doesn't shine
The stars neither twinkle nor do the night birds hover
The church bells are ringing for the gay weddings and
not for the opposite sex couples when they marry
The dogs and cats are playing cheerfully where as men and
women are playing devil games ending their life in hell
The hatred politicians are coming back to power with majority
and the poor masses shed their tears underneath their glasses
Today, the guns and knives are freely available in the market
and even the innocent school children are not spared for their life
The father wanders at next door and the mother looks at back door
and their children are miserable looking everywhere
The music is no more melodious and its lyrics are weird words
that the dictionary cannot find their meanings
They say love is blind, which is true because today it
does not matter who comes in or goes out.
Is this a mad world that we all are living today.
