The StruggleA Poem by Sharif Muhammad
In the Name of God"the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful
The Struggle If a Soul could be content with what it hath, Tyranny and oppression would linger elsewhere; And if a smile could replace a frown in the aftermath, Injustice would cease and roam in the midst of nowhere. Yet since when was the Truth easily handled; Most of The Righteous these days, hide obscurely And the Bravely Outspoken Men’s lights are dimly candled. Corruption overrules, while fairness amounts to merely! Pinpoint to me a safe haven where they could reside; And I dare thee to preach a new curriculum of reasoning. None, is there?! For Right and Wrong are Naturedly ingrained for us to abide. Now: thy duty is to help recompense lives and wealth lost in manners so demeaning; Tis no easy task, but Candid Morality, in the long-run, is always rewarded, For even if Tyranny seems like a raging beast; in reality, it is cowardly sordid. © Sharif Muhammad 2016 © 2022 Sharif MuhammadAuthor's Note
