Coveted News Poem by shakil ahmed

Coveted News

We have been waiting for last fifteen years
For a much coveted and yearning news
Hoping some good things will come in life
Life will be full with oodles of hues

Rumors spread like cloud of the sky
Surrounding everywhere without any compassion
Every day we are building castles in the air
Dreaming a happy life without interruption.

We are leading a life far away from reality
Rumors surround us like the twisted twigs
We have become the victim of treachery
We are bald headed wearing wigs

Now we have nothing to do, but to blame our destiny
Because reality has come before our eyes
Slowly and slowly we are hiding our faces
And have become ashamed of our lies

Life has given us a shattered blow
We are not excused for our disability
We deserve it, not by the trick of destiny
But by the lack of our credibility.
