Untouchable

Untouchable

Miles apart

Looking for that very thing

Which confronts our wrecked soul

With comfort for grandeur under the disguise

Does it look so nice?

For being so naive and heedless

For the sake of our wretched lives.


How can we lead our niggardly lives?

Where happiness is all we desire

Whether it's a snatch or snitch 

From the poor wayfarers 

Who tend to live their selfless lives

Under the shreds of snub and deceit

By impounding such laws 

Which this world can never endeavour


Is it not so mortifying?

To let those million lives

Patronize the endanger 

That never meant to be a part

Of their forsaken lives


Is this world so deafening??

To be so inaudible,

Towards all the never-ending cries and pains

Scars that we drew into their skin

That won’t ever fade away

Quivering feet which we snapped

Can't ever make a stand


Is this how we go along?

Is this all that ever meant to be?

So cliche and malicious within

Can they ever live through 

Those untouchable catchphrases??

Will we ever be humane once again??

To let those irreproachable souls

Lead a soothing esse.
