Death to Life not Life to Death

Death to Life not Life to Death

I should have died much before,

But when I saw seasons changing their colours.... getting casted in the way they should....

Sun sinking after tiring job of giving me trouble....

Letting moon to heal my feet ulcers....

Of me suddenly disappearing for a long time, 

But to come back, with much more revealing brightness and shine...

Seeing the leaves falling from the trees.... 

Leaving that stem without any greed...

To grow new leaves in it...

Giving its new look...

To drift the sand along with water.... As long as it could....

Noticing roses blossoming into thorns...

Peepal growing on a stone,

I got to know What life is....

I knew then, love is a way to heal oneself...

And living without it is an act of courage...

Helping others, self sacrificing is my meaning and motive to live....

I then wrote poem on you,

To sing it to others.... While sitting alone in a dark room,

So that everyone could meet you....

And I can keep you alive in myself....

To learn liveliness....

And to also stay alive by myself....

To keep on loving you like this....

To keep loving my life's healer and heroine.......
