Suffering is everywhere, inevitably I shall get my share. Unfair society up to the brim with crime, this vessel implodes, we couldn’t fix it in time
Violence creates picket fences, humanity is no longer existential. The weak suffer countless assaults, yet we refuse to fill our cracks and faults.
Suffering is everywhere, inevitably I shall get my share. Poverty resides everywhere, utopian visioners still unaware.
Our world, stabbed with brutality, makes me lose my faith in humanity As I attempt to reclaim my sanity. I desperately search for an ounce of clarity.
Suffering is everywhere, inevitably I shall get my share. North Korea sets a new example of a dystopia.
Authoritarian states of powerful groups, people stuck in quicksand, it’s a vicious loop. The brutal Repressive regimes of Syria, violation of human rights in Saudi Arabia.
Suffering is everywhere, inevitably I shall get my share. Hell on earth slowly establishing, our compassion slowly vanishing
Each untimely death presents a testament, a warning, we create a life that longs to see a new morning
Dawn that brings hope for a change. Only if it was as easy as turning a page
And yet as you tell me not to lose hope. I contemplate once more if our world could cope
As another woman gets crushed under misogyny As another coloured person strives to retain their dignity
As another youth cracks under pressure. We fail to see this fallen treasure.

Very true dear poet
Suffering is everywhere
No boundaries accord
Beyond the miles and every corner
From women to children
From minorities to marginalised all ache in sufferings of prejudices
Each is targeted for being something
You very well questioned the authoritarians and the so called empaths
Well crafted dear poet
