The smiling fool

ask your hear and you ll know
the truth which with open eyes
you might not see
ask and tell
might never come
the best way to live
is to live carefree
there's however an obvious difference
between being carefree and careless
seldom will you do anything
that's for others
because that's the only human quality
that'll never change
every single act of humanity
has found roots in the soil of self
admit or deny the fact remains unmorphed
why do we cry then?
it's a state of mind where
humans stop being themselves
and make a selfish attempt
at being selfless
that state is pure and
can be put as godly
what makes us do
what we are doing now
we do,what we see others doing
the earthly pleasures of
money food sleep drinks sex
have failed to satisfy us
from time to time
sometimes
frustration crosses all the barriers
all we want to do is yell out
to the world that stares hard
at us without a wink
seclusion and abstinence
might prove helpful
but they too fail
in a week's time
and we come out and take birth again.
