Live Life

If you are unable to say

How today is different from yesterday

If your days are coloured in same hue

And tomorrow seem to offer nothing new

Then you are neither dead nor alive

For dead decays and turns manure

Life thrives on that hence

In time both has its purpose sure

So stop sitting on the fence

And no, don’t crossover as yet

For you wish it or not,

To that passing you would eventually get

So while you are here give it your best

Endeavour to live to the fullest

See, hear, taste and touch

Absorb what’s around as much

Learn to remember and remember to forget

Leave not much to regret

Learn to laugh and cry laughing

Fall in love and love falling

Clinch your chance, yet learn to let go

Soar high yet yearn to go slow

Take risks and risk to live

Extract all that it has to give

For there is nothing certain in life but death

No matter how hectic it may get

Finally you would get to rest

Aye all men are born equal !

Aye all men are born equal...

Not perhaps in strength or intellect,

Not for sure in the wealth they inherit.

Not all are born with a silver spoon,

Or with beauty of a spring bloom.

Yet all men at the start of their life,

Have boundless dreams equally rife.

Fire in their hearts that burns so bright,

A light that could lead them in the darkest night.

Aye all men do remain equal...

Till they for their noble dreams strive,

And the flame of hope is kept alive.

Until the worldly wisdom dawns,

And they slowly learn to bow down.

Till they trade their cherished dreams,

And in the process lose their self esteem.

Their soul corrupt and self betrayed,

Slowly they fade into the swamp of slaves.

Aye all men are born equal...

Not all make it big, get famous or get rich,

Just that some strive to the very last ridge.

No matter where they fall or how they fall,

As long as that they don’t stall.

For what matters more is not where you start, but where you end,

The journey you make till you relent.

How you spend those unforgiving moments,

Fill them thus that there is nothing to repent.
