Oh my dear spoiled friend!
Don’t you know that this world will end?
You’ll be in your grave, I’ll be in mine
You’ll have no cars that always shine
The colored paper notes that you greedily store
Alas! They’ll not be with you any more
You scream when you don’t get your favorite food
I sleep without it often, hiding my grief mood
You run hard to buy a hundred dollar shirt
I have a single, torn one with dirt
You die to buy the newly launched iphone
And I over my dad’s illness, silently moan
You casually throw your pizza away
I find my food from street bins and hay
You buy your kid a big box of toys
But my grand ma shouts, “go away, boy!”
Sand is my paper, stick is my pen
Still I wish to be among noble men
I want to help people when I grow
I don’t even want to see a helpless crow
Why don’t you feel the same?
Why do you keep running after fame?
Do you possess a heart or not?
Is it a big stone, in chest you’ve got?
