Their Mocking
From this darkness, I see the outside world perfectly
I can see how people cover their face under the mask
How much they try to show what they are not
They seems confused all the time ,what to perform where.
They never allow realities to surface out
It appears as if they have mastered this art since they are born
To them this world is not more than the stage
where they are performing fine art to earn livelihood with respect.
For them this Life is mere amusement
Their struggle to survive is everything,
yet they do not understand the feelings of the others.
O, devils just teach them tonight what is wrong and what is right
Teach them that the lights of this dawn will be snatched
And they will be in the darkness again
If they do not stop mocking at the life
And their happiness will go under the clouds of uncertainty.
