This is life indeed!

You need to live!

By Ekta K. Kalra Published 2 years ago 1 min read

creating a time for self

is a must to rise in life

all rest is well and occupied

with pride

or without pride

life needs to be more polite.

silent my thoughts

I need to use

universal peace

count me as friend

or enemy

it matters not

what you do

to

what I do

or did

I am alone in my pursuit

of success

just as each one

should be

stood on

hard ground

I feel pain in heart

the feet while

makes no disturbed

rhythm in sound

this is life

this is my town

to worship self aloud

can be wrong

but to respect self

is by which

you can create

a better sound

in you

disrespect begins

in the other

and spreads in me

I need to stay far

from most

human beings

human sins

for this is life

this being me

i should survive

all tyranny

I need to live

for me

For they who win by hurt

are less than human beings

they tremble in nights

or winds

you need to succeed

my mind

do not care for the dead

so much

that you forget to live

carry yourself

not as burden

but as life

as alive still

despite

despite

dirt in most heads

you still need to live

if they hurt you here

you still need to live

you still need to live

despite

despite of everything

you still need to live
