Life

What do you think is the meaning of life?

A numbered account permitting only withdrawals of priceless time,

An adventure ride in unknown territory from cradle to grave,

Or a mere alternate reality, dream of sorts wherein we wake only when we sleep!

It's a very hard feeling to realize while we are living,

Juggling aimlessly within means in pursuit of materialistic ends,

We pretend to know the unknowns but effortlessly not know the truths,

May it be so that we come to terms with life only when in His arms!

People are taken for granted day in and day out and underplayed,

Do we have to wait till their last breath to express our gratitude?

Why do we celebrate life only when the celebrative is no more amongst us?

For she shall never know what thy feelings were howsoever desperately we may thrust!

It's easy to hold a grudge and not break the ice of ego,

But you reach that traumatising point when the real cause is unremembered,

Relations are built over long years and not a thing of the frail minds,

For this life is not enough creating distances that thy could not bridge!
