Hunger

Hunger strikes everyone,
lotus feels it too,
mad mad world,
says she can't be beautiful,
she can't be pink anymore,
she can't float well,
Oh! she can't be happy.

Hunger strikes everyone,
lotus feels too,
she stops eating food,
she leans to the water for
love and care, she can't drink much
as she is already in the water,
she craves for the green leaf,
to touch thy texture,
but she fails there too.

Hunger strikes everyone,
men feel too,
they kill thy neighbour,
for feeding their dirt,
their bad mad soul,
they die never peaceful,
the hungry hungry skulls.

Hunger strikes everyone,
lotus feels too,
she drowns in sadness,
but one day when the sun is glorious,
she screams out loud,
she is beautiful I say,
she hears her words,
she floats to the greeny green,
she hugs thy love like never before,
she eats, breathes and drink even more,
for she knows that greeny,
will love her even more,
the world is beautiful,
with all those scary men,
her love is graceful,
she is back to her chores.
