Hunger

Hunger

1 min
46


All are striving, sacrificing blood, sweat, and tears

All fathers don't know the word pleasure 

They dedicate every moment of life

Mothers are acquainted with words like sleepless nights, pain, anxiety


A long queue of unemployed youths emit the breaths of hopelessness

Unwanted children carry the garbage bags on their soft backs

Others rely on pretentions, lie, and betrayal

All stuff occur for one reason 


To satiate the wonderful torture of hunger.

Everyone is exhausting his strenuous efforts not to feel that pain

But despite the plethora of projects and schemes 

The pervasive extent of the malady hunger has not been removed


Even in the recent scenario, small children are struggling with that enemy

Their bright futures have been blanketed under the pangs of hunger

As they have to bear the brunt in place of getting an education

Everyone is trumpeting of development, progress, and prosperity


But the contemporary situations reveal that everything is futile

The word ' hunger ' demands massive actions 

If that word vanishes, millions of smiles will bloom

Dear Almighty!

If you want to do a miracle 

Then perish the word hunger forever...
