"We" were
people who evolved and took dominion over the world, that "we" live
in today...
"We" feared
the wild beasts, storm, fire, hunger and the thought of being alone!
"We" grew
from one to two and a million more...
"We" worked
together to liberate ourselves from our fears.
"We"
remained bound to each other, to continue being powerful and in control...
"We"
fostered cultivation; "We" endorsed industrial civilization and
encouraged any kind of possibilities that contributed towards the ecstatic
feeling of progress!
But Alas!
"We"
neglected to reason that we evolved only because it was "We" who made
it achievable and not just an "I".
And slowly we bend
our heads to execute ourselves and crafted our own destruction...
"We" built
barbed wires and divided ourselves... abandoning the joy of togetherness!
The fire that
"We" dominated blistered us like a cigarette that burnt our gasp for
life.
Starvation that
"We" fought together to feed, became the fight of the less
fortunate... There was a rich man and a poor man, and they could never be
quantified as one no longer...
“I” was branded to a
faith, and lost my conviction to being humane as “I” was too involved in saving
a place for myself in heaven!
Being alone is what
"I" choose, because it gives me the freedom of meeting my
self-centric dogma… Family and friends are of no more relevance because my life
is just my obligation!
It all culminated to
where “I” stand today.
“I” stand alone…
“I” stand in anger
with my neighbour…
“I” am starving in my
own misery…
“I” am manipulated…
“I” fear I cannot go
on…
“I” sense hatred
around me…
“I” cling on, scared
that I may fail to protect the last of my hope …
If only “I” would
have stopped thinking, that “I” didn’t care for what “We” had before, and that
“I” only cared for my tomorrow… It would have been a life worth living!
“I should have known,
I was just a drop, but together we could have made an ocean”
