The world will judge you,
By what you do, and not what you think,
The world will judge you,
By what you say, and not why you say,
The world will judge you,
By your appearance, and not your intellect.
And yet,

There exists a faction of people,
Who kindle the joy of "All for one",
Who break the social barriers,
And set examples, for those,
Who get comfortable,
In their cocoons of barriers,
Who think their world is indeed,
Like a new born bird, This nest alone.

I see the melting wax, I see the burning wick, But lost is the light, In the rays of a bulb. A light which would shine, A light which would bring smile, In dark houses and small alleys, I see it battling each day, With hope to win someday. Powerless, I stare at the flame with hope, Praying at the same time, For it to win someday, For it to win every day. ©onerandompoet
