The Asset .





So many void smiles ,
Current the tickling watch ,
To sail the demand's river .

So many emotions , turning into love ,
Open clumsy red –light in the street ,
And get  poisoned  , they don't merit .

So many steady ships sink un harbored ,
Being  eye-arrowed by infatuation ,
For lust empress , stirs commotion .

So many fortitude of humiliations ,
And poison-throat ed service ,
Receive a slaughter house instead of sacrifice .

So many elder brothers , fill father's absence ,
And  assume bull to carry the family-cart ,
Alas ! for them waits negligence and hurt .

Yet , two drops of tears , of that unasked lover ,
For humans remain as the greatest treasure .
