Why should I live?........

I sat thinking today,
what does life have to say?
Death is sure to come after life,
But why there's never a second way?

Why do we go on constructing this wall,
When it has to be broken after all?
The way we come to life,
The same way we go to death!
There isn't a single difference
between the first and last breath!

Life follows the sequence
Of pleasures and pains,
At every stage it's neutral,
-No losses; No gains!

People come close to us,
And move far away,
They make us drown in sorrow,
They cause us to be gay,

What meaning does come out?
When everything is equally probable!
Why should we move up and down,
With the waves of comforts and troubles?

At that instance suddenly,
A flower caught my sight,
It was blooming red with fragrance,
As though laughing at my plight.

I felt as if it wanted,
To tell me some fact,
I heard it speaking softly,
Its very own dialect-

"What do you think of life?
It's just an unnecessary truth!
If that's the way you think,
I can just have on you some Ruth!"

My life is short although,
It's a precious chance to exist!
My body will die out certainly,
but my lingering fragrance
will let me persist.

To 'exist' is not so simple,
It's something very great!
You've got a chance to be yourself!
So go for the best possible trait!

After death you'll be lost,
In the darkness unexplored.
If today is light in your hands,
Why not have it some more?

Stop thinking of life and death,
Stop thinking of pleasures and pains,
Feel the beauty of love around you,
And there'll be only gains!

Reach closer to some hearts,
Oh! Shower the love rain,
You'll live even after death,
Your life will not be in vain !
