The Idea Of Justice Poem by Ruta Mohapatra
The Idea Of Justice
Don't you worry
The law will take its course
It may take months, even years
Or perhaps, a few decades
But justice will be done
You may have to hide your face
As if you are a criminal
Not the victim of circumstances
Run from pillar to post
But justice will be done
Your life may go to shreds
As good as you are dead
Your dreams turn to ashes
Your dear ones heaped with curses
But justice will be done
Will that justice be enough?
Worth the years of waiting
And the years of struggle?
Won't it be better to rebuild your life
While the law is taking its course?
It is really a beautiful poem on justice having a broad outlook with touching expression and nice collocation. Justice will be done but it takes much times perhaps few decades in which the dreams of a person may turn to ashes. Thanks for sharing.10
