SELFLESS {AN ORIGINAL POETRY}

Though he is brave and intelligent,
yet, he fights for neither position nor honour
or think about taking any self-centered move.
Which makes people refer to him as a selfless being.

However, the fact that he cares about other people,
even more than he cares for himself
didn’t mean he did not have a skeleton in his cupboard.
What can his secret be?

Though everyone hates selfish people,
However, who can boldly claim he is selfless?
How many people can point to you that you are selfless?
Where expertly did you think we can find selfless beings?

To be candid,
what larger amount of people fight for
is centered on me, myself and I,
which shows how selfish most of us are.

Although, many has been blindfolded with what their benefit may be,
however, the bitter truth is;
satisfying oneself while others suffers today,
will make other satisfy their self while trouble comes tomorrow.

Therefore, a selfless man will always be taken care of
because the people he took care of will always be ready to help him
whenever he needs help
which reviews the secret of a selfless man.
