Craving
We crave for power, land and for food Desire flaring as a wildfire is not so good To build the roads forest are mowed We want roads to be fancy and broad No minds are genuine, no heart has love People are selfish throughout the globe I fear the […]
Even When I Fail
Even when I fail I’ll stand and take learnings from the past Because I want to succeed I’ll make some right move. Even when I fail I won’t feel regret Or even bitterness I will remain hopeful. Even when I fail I’ll never quit nor stop Because quitters never win […]
