The life walks and wakes in pain and thoughts,
Where fire is not hot enough and love not deep,
Where feelings are merely reflex of the nonce,
Where happiness is just a pursuit for survival.
The death sleeps for calls of harmony,
Where just decaying is yet another stone to touch,
Where feelings are defunct, people just faces forgotten,
Where the pursuit lies in soul's love to attainment of salvation.
But why?
Happiness and salvation are uncanny truths of being and not.
Invincible trials of the mankind in life and rot.
When the attainment of these virtues is only felt in between moments,
Real living with the heat of fire and depth of love.
Why live and die for something?
Why find reason?
Why happiness?
Why salvation?
Why not just being alive, nurturing and savouring
Every transient memory of life?
Whether happy or sad.
Why there has to be a reason?
To add meanings and rules to live and not.
Why can't us be liberated souls without bondages,
Of ideal ideas.
Why live for happiness and salvation,
When there is so much to live for?
