Mad Humanity

in the darkest hour of the night

I woke up terrified

what was it that woke me up?

it wasn't pain

but still my heart throbbed

it wasn't thirst

but still my throat choked

it wasn't discomfort

but still my body ached

it wasn't sadness

but still my mind wept

so what was it?

I pondered upon it

the whole night

by the window I sat

at last came morn and

the maiden rays of sun

bringing in the answer,

it was despair,

at the humanity gone mad!
