Do Good Anyways…

They say – when nothing goes right, go left

But what to do when even there you feel bereft

They say – do good and good will come back to you

But what to do when nothing as such holds true

They say – God is there to see and set right

But what to do when it seems that truth is out of even HIS sight

They say – every cloud has a silver lining

But what to do when fake is every light that is shining

They say – kindness is a language which doesn’t need words

But what to do when it is trampled over and you’re declared a nerd

In such a time I am pretty sure you will feel like giving up

This world will seem a cruel place and you’ll find it tough to hold up

You’ll want to retire from one and all and be alone to patch up

The strewn pieces of your heart, so badly blown up!

But even then with faith in your heart, as strong as steel

Stand firm on your goodness and don’t allow them to steal-

– Your lasting courage and let your goodness reveal

‘Coz ultimately IT IS goodness which will help you in your ordeal

Such proverbs though loosely used and may seem unreal

In this strange world of today, goodness may seem surreal

But simplicity and genuineness how much ever ridiculed

Ultimately they win, and eventually they rule!
