Destructive emotions like anger, hatred and jealousy in our young learners coupled with precarious circumstances is taking a toll on their well-being. The commendable initiative, of the caring schools is all set to herald a change. This futuristic approach, inspired me to pen down a poem imbued with fervent emotions and buoyant expectations.


I lost a friend, would you Like to know how and Why?

Will tell you with a Heaving heart and a Mournful sigh!

He would have Flourished and might Have been with us,

Melodiously reciting a Poem with an insightful Crux.

Grade system Flourished, in the Temple of Knowledge.

An innocent soul lost Hope, did anyone Acknowledge?

Alas! The brutal Academic pressure Became the noose,

A grueling battle that my Dear friend was bound To lose!

Engulfed in plummeting Hopes and silent cries For help,

Clearly, we were losing Him and he was losing Himself.

Voracious appetite for Knowledge was Expected,

Nothing more was left To learn, he Introspected.

Venturing the Crossroads without Goal,

Trapped him in a morbid Black hole.


Who was to be blamed,

For the loss that deeply Pained?

He was on his own,

What on earth was Gained?

Gravely lost in the Perilous life,

Every moment Challenged him with a Strife.


Dampening courage, Brutal times loomed,

A dazzling bright star Was thus doomed.

My heart ripped apart When I saw the wailing Mother,

Shattered at heart for The treasured kidder.

Aggression, depression And substance abuse,

Degraded a convivial Sapling to a recluse!


Heart-wrenching cases Like this, were Becoming A frequent Sight,

Thank goodness, now We have caring schools To our respite!

Learning requisite skills, And taking the charge,

Channelizing energies, Will have a great start!

Classrooms will have a Creative demeanor,

Something a child, Cannot ignore.


Noxious thoughts will be Put to rest,

With education at its Ever-best.

Rejuvenating nurture And tender revival,

Cultivate the thoughts, Pertinent for survival.

It’s a ray of hope for These precious lives,

The sacred soul will be Salvaged before it dives.


Levitating happiness Index with Right to Education,

What a marvelous Amalgamation!

Families will not have to Grieve and gloom,

Over the loss of life that Once bloomed.

Joy, gaiety and high Spirits will prevail,

In toughest times, Helping the pristine Stars sail.

Metamorphosing, Unleashing talent,

We will have humans Who are gallant.

With a blissful life and The visions clearer

The salvaged soul will Become a torch-bearer.
