What matters?

Raj Deep 2005 (Punjab)



Something more crucial than cash,
But you put in your hours like trash.

It's a treasure, the true self,
Who cares, just chit-chat about wealth.

Now you are chasing after money,
In due time, there will be chasing after life
Ahhh very funny.

Age never hangs fire, not for a moment
Today materialistic world governs you
Tomorrow you will we governing if capable,
its adamant.

You are existence is not concerns within four walls,
Get in the big sky it's an urgent call.

About this poem

Life is a precious gift from god. No doubt it is very challenging but monotonous life is not interesting at all. Take care of this valuable present and do what matters the most in life.
