There Will Be A Time Poem by nithya raghavan

There Will Be A Time



There will be a time,
when the receding waters,
of a massive tsunami,
swallow up selfishness,
without leaving a trace.

there will be a time,
when the red hot iron rod,
pierces its end into,
cunningness which dominates this planet.

there will be a time,
when the word 'caste',
which blackens our tongue,
like a black mass of coal,
cripples itself,
like a disabled individual.

there will be a time,
when God will evilly set,
fire to our well-structured,
expectations, which grows,
bigger in us through our balmy days.

there will be a time,
when raspy whispers,
turn into roars of a jungle.

there will be a time,
when a silver thread,
passes through the core of ourselves,
like the moony ends of a pink pearl.
there will be a time,
when the word 'injustice'
freezes in our injured throats...
