Right to live

Before you shoot, look into my eyes
Can you feel the same fear you feel inside?
You may see me as the one who has everything
But I have the same fears and hesitations after all

Before you shoot, think and feel what it would be like
To be at the other end of the strife
Will taking my life ease your pain?
Or could this be dealt with in a way where both of us can gain?

Before you shoot, or have such a thought
Tell me your pain & what you have sought
Maybe you can find something that you ll treasure
But you haven’t given me a chance to show what I have to offer!!

There’s the humane side ‘
A joy in one’s mind & soul
That’s been buried alive
In everyone and forgotten

What do you gain by this brutal act?
Without being human!!
Without happiness!!
Forgoing the very essence of humanity

Your life has now become a joke
An intimate humor of emotions !!
Let me off & try to be humane
So you can learn everyone has a “RIGHT TO LIVE”
