Life .....


A poem written by me in the process of finding Meaning of intangible strange…. which exists and because of which we exist..... The thing without which the world is nothing but a piece of clay …. Yes I am talking about ‘The Life’
And this poem addresses the same...


Hi ‘Life’ who (what) you are…?
Please allow me to Embrace you
Hey are you a gift from God…
Or love of dear ones…
A misery…? Or dance in the rain…?
A cuddle of a child…?
Or… playing games apart…?
Come on ‘Life’ tell me what you are…?

Are you the same for me and everyone else?
Hey ‘Life’… Deep within us, a light of yours always dwell
I know… you are there with me always
I know… won’t have same night and days
I know all this… and more…
But I wanna know … how far you can soar….

‘Life’ …. I have few complains from you
Why always the road to victory is tricky whatever I do....?
Why I have desires…. but no meaning of success….
Eh ‘Life’… I lost my heart’s access….
Tell me why I fail to hear anything but my scream….
Am I blindfolded with my own dreams…?

I know you hurt when I am in pain…
And forgive me ‘Life’ when I behave insane….
‘Life’ I love you for many reasons…
No matter... even if have gloomy seasons….
You’re not my foe but a beautiful friend…
You’re my buddy till the journey ends…
So, I am thankful to you… for the way you are
With you ‘Life’ I have to reach the stars…
With you ‘Life’ I have to reach the stars…

A nice poem, which has inspired me to post a comment.. a bit different albeit. You had questions from life, so let me display life's perspective. Hope you won't mind.

You are mine and I am your(s)..
And everyone else whom I adore
Coz everyone has got me with themselves
And I am too happy with thyself

I am God's most precious gift to you
You ask if I love you, I say I do
You may think that I don't care for you
But the fact is that I can't live without you

At times its you who neglects me a lot
Still I believe that you'll forget me not
At times you are far and at times you are near
Wherever you maybe, you're always dear

The bonding we share we cannot explain
Its full of glory, joy, tears and disdain
But each moment we are with the other
Like a baby who can't live without his mother

And we were together since our start
And will be together till death does us part
Through all thicks, thins, love and strife
I am your alter ego, I am your life ..
