Quest for peace

 

I have been bitten by grief, stung in the heart

I sit  down for a moment's peace, but horns keep blasting from these metallic carts

Hollow hearted mammals, searching for glory

In their pursuit of wealth turning into brutes so gory

I try to slow down the pace of this city

But it never sleeps and no one is there to share my pity

Tears roll down my cheeks as think of my sorrow

People pass by as my tear just means one more droplet in a road so narrow

I want to be consoled, want to be felt wanted

This city is a so called metro which takes emotions for granted

This city never sleeps but people here are burdened 

With a chest of emotions, when I think, I feel so saddened

I shall now console myself and get back to work

Billing for alien clients, I can't allow myself to lurk

Incredible India isn't all that incredible if you look through my eyes

Sorrow is deeply embedded at heart and nobody consoles me with words so nice.

Life has become a game of economy

Emotions are just a routine monotony

I shall cherish these moments where I can feel like a human menace

Continuing my quest for peace and searching for solace
