Summary of my Life
Syeda Habeeba 2006 (Aligarh)
------
Summary of my life
every drop of rain I witness
questions me 'why'?
while I just hope to see it's meaning
in the cold mist I lie
with dreamy and vague eyes
wondering at some point
'Does it even hold a reason?'
And a voice inside of me
gently whispers
"oh love,
Indeed you don't choose to be born
and yet you can choose to exist
up until the day
you are destined to die,
and your existence solely
has some reason
you make it
you find it,
How wonderful...
is this little span of life.''
It's cruel , It's beautiful
It's fortunate , It's wonderful
and yet I live
for there is a reason
one that'll prove my existence,
what a bliss,
to have someone precious by your side
or to be loved by the person you like
and yet,what a misery
to see them say goodbye,
Oh,darling
do not cry
for this is life
one's might be too dark
while another's too bright
cause this is life.
