Hope..

A long day 'twas and the traffic standstill,
At last, I wondered, we could eat our stomach's fill.
I waited and begged and pleaded and prayed,
"Dun't have change, come later" is all that they said.
But I wasn't disappointed 'coz someday I'll be rich,
and all the things in this world will switch...

I love my mother as she is very very good,
Though I come empty, she gives me enough food.
But I dunt like her cries when she puts me to bed,
"Your father left us to stay with the god", she once said..
But I wasn't unhappy 'coz someday I'll be rich,
and all the things in this world will switch...

I heard that there are kids who need not work at all !
They just eat and study and play football !!
There are rich people who eat 3-4 curries a meal !
When we get to eat only leftover rice, water and even banana peel !!
But I was not angry 'coz someday I'll be rich,
and all the things in this world will switch...

Quite intense and emotional.

It sorta rhymed and surely didn't flow.

But again, when the heart speaks, the brain should stop. Rhyme meters, flow bla and bla are of no consequence when the feeling is this intense. Quite some motivation I guess.

AWESOME!
