Wanderlust

Rocky terrain of high mountains,
The snow capped mountains ignite,
The wanderlust in me;

To break away from the drudgery of life,
From the petty human loss,
A caricature of intelligent race,
Victim of different definitions of the God,
Blind to the color of blood,
Brewing cauldrons of hatred and violence;

Wanderlust, turned the pages,
From nowhere empathy emerged,
A Muslim and a Hindu bonded,
The Muslim sheltered the Hindu old,
Discarded by her own,
A sacred lamp lit beside the Koran;

Definitions end, differences forgotten;
Humanity evolves and life begins.
