No Stranger To Me

He is worried for hours,

When white hair appeared for the first time,

In his beard,

He has been unpleasant for some weeks,

When the salary increment is biased,

He felt cornered,

While everyone is displaying their cars,

He walked alone,

The birthday parties,

Team lunch plans,

New Year events,

He never attended one,

In his lifetime,

All he yearned was to live a respectful life,

He never took loans,

Never missed paying bills,

Now,

He became old,

He has stories to tell,

His life is not interesting to others,

The only reason is,

He is not rich enough,

To be respected,

He is not a stranger to me,

He is one of us,

May be,

He is nothing but,

The personification of our life,

Who dwells in between,

Ethics and economics,

Right and wrong,

Regrets and rare pieces.
