Lost Humanity in the Shadow of the Mob 👺♨
—Zahidul Jamy

In shadows deep, the mob does creep,
Life’s journey halts, where dreams once leap.
Endless protests fill the air,
A quest for knowledge lost in despair.

Education’s light, like statues stands,
Walls of bias break, as hope expands.
Students rise, united in song,
In the rhythm of change, they all belong.

Under the guise of law and order,
Hope dims down, as hearts grow colder.
Injustice cries, a haunting sound,
In the mob’s dance, humanity’s drowned.

Colleges silent, learning’s plight,
Fields of knowledge shrouded in night.
Lectures fade, as shadows loom,
Lost in the echoes of impending gloom.

Voices of youth, their dreams ignite,
Against oppression, they stand to fight.
Yet the mob’s wrath, a bitter sting,
Crushes the paths that freedom should bring.

Injustice rises, cries in the dark,
A call for justice, a desperate spark.
In the mob’s fury, chaos swirls,
As humanity bends, the world unfurls.

In the mob’s wake, humanity’s scarred,
Seeds of trust buried, forever marred.
Questions arise, seeking the day,
When freedom will shine, and darkness will sway.

Students ponder, emotions laid bare,
Where rights are crushed, hope lingers in air.
This strife and pain, when will it cease?
From the mob’s shadows, let’s find our peace.

This bias and strife, when will it part?
When will we rise, and mend every heart?
From the path of the mob, let’s break free,
To a dawn of knowledge, for you and me.

Light of learning, a song of release,
Awaken each soul, let love never cease.
Through the shadows, we’ll find our way,
Together, let’s greet a brighter day.
