Beggars in the pavement asking for alms;
Vagabonds continuously wandering;
Street children with nothing to eat just lick their palms;
These states of living are so shattering.

Avaricious keep on acquiring riches
Not caring how others are feeling;
Such a bunch of leeches
Being parasitic, doing nothing but stealing.

With head bowed down, we lament
'Coz we are still trapped by our past
Did not dare to feel any enjoyment
Go through each day so fast.

This world we are living
Full of dilemmas and sorrows
But all we do is self-pitying
Instead of doing things for better tomorrows.

Lived with an intention to avenge
Treated this whole life as if it is a big challenge.
Just the sorrowful side of life. But, hey, I'm not really sad (or feeling sad) when I wrote this. :)
