Shame on you, page-120

What is the joy of living a life
If you don't have an aim
What is the prestige of being a friend
If in friendship
You never remain the same


What is the feeling of having a heart
If you don't like to care
What is the happiness in being happy
If you don't want it to share


What is the purpose of having a tongue
If you use your hands to fight


What is the beauty in bearing deep eyes
If you don't have deep thoughts


What is the joy of living a life
If you don't have an aim
What is the fruit of having an aim
If you cannot be a good human being
Rabia Nadeem


Good And Evil


The nature of good and evil
Is more than black and white.
They are the darkness in our souls,
Likewise they are the light.

They dwell at human nature's core,
And breed virtue and sin.
They are the fundamental force,
Within the hearts of men.

They fuel our greed and selfishness,
Our pride and vanity,
They fan the flames of bigotry,
Inciting enmity


They also teach us how to love,
And live righteous lives.
This struggle between right and wrong
Determines who survives.

The sum of every human heart
Is measured by this scale.
It will bring life to those who learn,
And death to those who fail.

Without them there would be no light
Or darkness in our souls,
No thought of who, or what we are,
No wide eyed dreams or goals.

Good and evil form our center,
Like the roots of a tree.
They're human nature's architect,
They are humanity.

Mark Spencer
