Humanity: A poem by Khushboo Agarwal

I see humans but no humanity, 
Just selfishness and wickedness can be seen,
No morals and principles, no love, no affection,
So much mean, this world has never been.

No importance of relationships, all feelings gone,
No interest in sharing each other's pains,
All running after only money and fame, 
Each one only focusing on their own gains.

Only evilness and dishonesty all around,
Rich always looking down upon the poor,
No sympathy, no compassion for own mankind,
Even blood relations are now going sore.

People wearing several masks on their faces,
Their real nature cannot be guessed,
Even for fun, entertainment and money,
Humans play with nature, kill animals, cruelty at best.

Trees cut down, green lands turned into barren ones,
Buildings and industries set up, pollution spread everywhere,
For their own benefit, lands are divided, borders made,
Disturbing the balance of earth, land, water, and air.

I see humans but no humanity,
Everything going towards the only destruction,
Only self-realization and efforts can save the world,
Change things and gift humanity to the new generation.
