Just like us

When I get up and look at the news
Hear it from kitchen while
doing dishes in sink
Water running - words drop in my ear.
I hear about people just like us.
That truck which went burnt out.
On Route 3 Today morning.
With 8 people it it.
They were people like you and me.
The bridge broke and people got dowened.
Most of their bodies wasnt even found intact.
They were also people just like us.
Who ate their breakfast onto the table.
Who were in hurry and just grabbed something.
Who had a meeting in the office.
Who had to get to their class in time.
Somebody was waiting for them at the other station.
Right when the bomb blasted in the train.
People like you and me.
Caught in Fire - Blown in front of our eyes.
Those kids - just like ours.
Who did the same pranks,hated to take medicine.
Read same books - liked cookies and chocklates.
Thrown in waters - wild waters.
Disappeared never to come back.
Their pictures - in thousands of cameras.
But no sign of them.
What are we waiting for.
Those were people like me and you.
Lets get done with tasks undone.
Lets meet all those - we will regret not meeting.
Lets thank them all - without whom we coulnt have made it.
Lets love them - Who loved us quitely.
Through the years.
Before it is too late.
Afterall - Its never too late.
