POVERTY Miles and miles away, There lived a girl near the bay, Every day, Under the sun's ray, she pictures a play, In which, She, The queen, And he, The king, They lived A "Happily ever after" life, Where the sky, pale and blue, And their lives, light and bright, They fought together, the battles, And protected the castles, A kingdom of riches, where, People throw diamonds to Chase the stray dogs, Busy noises of the road, Interrupts her day dream, Opening her eyes, Saw her hungry man, Fast asleep in the platform, Under melting heat, At the city's heart, Where, The tent, their castle! The food, their battle! Her sunken sockets, And his empty pockets, Would tell a different tale.

WHAT IF?! What if, The whole milky way galaxy, Kept in a Glass jar, At the corner of a shelf, In an Alien's room labelled, "Failed science projects" What if, The whole world, When we wake up one day, Become free for all. What if, The people in earth, Have an expiry date, Printed on their forehead. What if, The life we lived, Till now, is a dream, Of a 7 year old us, Getting a nap, On mother's lap. What if, One day, People buried In sand, raise again, And say, there's a world inside, Which is beautiful to reside, Made to subside The storming souls. What if, The Ice-creams Never melt, What if, The cotton candies Never stick, What if, The earth, Just a place to love. What if, The people we love, Can forever live. And What if, These "What Ifs" Are real !
