Great World’s Harsh Strife

#1

Gone those days of peace,

When everything started having a price.

Friend meant acquaintance, 

When one befriends other for one’s need.

Words lost their meaning,

When they were from lips.

Love started fading,

When one shattered another’s trust.

Character got tarnished,

When anger clouded one’s mind.

Doom of humans advanced,

When darkness consumed conscience.
