With every evening
twilight[i]
twilight[i]
Eyes glimpse
dwindling light
dwindling light
Head envisages
growing fright
growing fright
Body senses freezing
plight
plight
Setting life is at
stake
stake
Days & nights
mere waste
mere waste
Dream world we exit
Fantasies we quit
Future we aspired
Career we desired
People we used to
adore
adore
Mean nothing anymore
Soul endures solitary
And life turns utter
tragedy
tragedy
From deep within I
was whispered;
was whispered;
Boldly facing every
defeat
defeat
With will to succeed
Wheels of life do
proceed
proceed
Give your best to
life odds
life odds
Give every trail only
nods
nods
Fly with every wind
Try happiness every
bind
bind
Grab each hand of
humanity
humanity
Gaze not at them with
humility
humility
Embrace each cuddle
Cherish them
honorable
honorable
Carry no worries in
heart
heart
Grow no qualms in
soul
soul
Listen to birds’
songs
songs
Let your soul stay young
Let your breath go on
Let your body be
strong
strong
Live your life to the
full
full
For life is beautiful
