Ally Or Friend Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

I am poet alright
Every one expects me to fight
Raise slogans or banner of revolt
Shake the mentality and give jolt

But I am peaceful bird
Only play with sentimental word
Add little touchy feelings
And feel one of being

It works alright
People delight
When I write about their pain
Agony and sufferings and remain close

“I must rise above certain level”
The experience with revolutionary ideas must reveal
How far I can share it with them and feel pulse?
Will the other section of people may feel alienated and curse?

I unsure of their mind
I have yet to feel and find
Even though I care their sentiments
I must find thrust behind movement

Inside poet smiles at proposal
Finds no support and meets with dismissal
“People may use you for selfish end”
In this world you may never find ally or friend
