I Want To Know....



I want to know the truth of life,
the tears behind every smile,
Why some people are so unkind?
How can they leave their loved ones behind?
Why do we love them who never loved us?
Why couldn't we trust them who need our trust?
Why is life full of struggles?
Why can't we walk without any fumble?
Why do we prefer to live in darkness?
Where do we search for innate peacefulness?
Why hatred has dominated over love?
Why do people see each other as their foe?
Why do they kill brothers for the sake of religion?
Why can't they love them being a human?
Is this the way God wants us to live?
Do we think he is ever going to forgive?
I wish all of us put down the cruel swords..
If possible then my dears, don't disgrace our God.........
