Poetry: Be The One!

What is the use of power,
When there is blood and strife?
Why do we have to run to take cover,
When we can rise and strike?

What is the use of authority,
When the people despise its right?
Why do we worry of being a minority,
When we can still stand and fight?

What is the purpose to lead,
When there's none willing to follow?
Why do we have to bleed,
When our ideas can wipe out all sorrow?

What is the need to live,
When you can inspire none!
Why do you have to live,
When you can't be the one!
                         - Vipin
