15.08.47 was the day we achieved Independence.
Days have passed since then,
Industries have been built, cities developed, but-
O Lord! Where is the Independence?
Where is liberty? Where is equality?
Where is freedom of speech?
Where are the privileges promised by corrupt leaders in their false lines of speech?
O Lord! Give us Independence, give us true freedom of love, equality and of speech!
Frustated I write these lines in search of Independence.
As nowhere can I find anyone saying- ' I'm Independent! '
Enough is enough no more hypocrisy!
No more false promises of two-faced men.
I beg you!
O Lord! Show us Independence!
Because one day the world which you gave birth full of human & other livings-
Shall turn into nothing, but emotion forsaken machines!
So I pray; So I pray;
O Lord! Give us Independence! ! !
it has already become machines in all possible forms.You have to fight against these machines to render the world perfect and die trying
