Cry
Cry loud
You foolish heart-cry
Cry deep,
Cry louder.
All are your faults,
You sold the key of your rights,
Then- why screaming
when they changed your lock.
You chose the blind—
then cursed the darkness !!
You chose the deaf—
then begged to be heard !!
You chose the dumb—
then cursed for the silence !!
You auctioned your ‘FUTURE’ to the highest bidder,
Today, the bidder finished
your ‘FUTURE’ with no value.
This is the price of your vote.
