Truth of our existence

Sarvesh Jewalikar 2005 (Nanded)



Pointless lives we live
Lives which lack meaning.

No matter whatever the struggles we face
Circumstances never stop coming.

People laugh for no reason
And calls pessimistic to those who don't.

We keep enduring the pain till the end
Not knowing what will be the outcome

Such uncertain are our lives
One second you are alive and the next you are gone.

Something mysterious lies within the cosmos
And within it lies the truth unknown.

Something which we were never meant to know
Is what we call the truth of our existence.
