The reality of politicians

 By Abhiroop kaur mann 

Politicians, oh how they talk,

Promising solutions and change to walk,

But once they are in power, they forget,

Their promises fade away, like a silhouette.

They smile and shake hands, making friends along the way,

Saying the right things to get votes each day,

But when it comes to making laws and rules,

Personal gain often takes priority over what the people choose.

Their words are like honey, sweet and so pure,

But in reality, they are often unsure,

Making decisions that benefit the few,

Leaving behind the ones who trusted them to be true.

It's a game of power and position,

With ambition and greed as their mission,

Once they reach the top, they forget the rest,

A politician's promise, is often just a test.

So let us all be careful and wise,

And see through their lies and disguise,

Let us hold them accountable and demand,

A government that serves the people, not just their own brand.
