The circus

Life is nothing but circus of emotions

This is mine, that is yours,

This is what I am and this is what you are,

You have hurt me, now I am going to revenge that,

You have to live this way, because I want you to do that,

Why do we exist, why do we live?

Why do we suffer, why do we bear this pain?

Why cant we live to make ourselves happy?

Why we all are in pain and worry?

Why do we dream about tomorrow?

Why dont we live with solidarity?

This life is just like a circus of emotions,

We all are machines in these skins,

All the luxuries we have,

All the friends and enemies we behold,

All the successes and grudges we hold,

All are going to remain here only,

We plan for tomorrow, we plot for the downfall of others,

Do we know whats going to happen in the next moment?

There were people who planned a lot,

There were people who wanted to rule others,

There were people who earned all the luxuries,

There were people who gathered all the wealth,

Do you where they are?

We are also going to die,

Every second someone who wanted to see tomorrow is dying today,

Why cant we just live happily,

Do whatever we want to,

Live before we die,

We all have limited time,

We all are going to die,

Lets just live before this circus ends.

love that line "every second someone who wanted to see tomorrow is dying today"
when life falls down for us...we die a little bit more as we try to stand again...
Powerful feeling from this...why can't people just live for the day and let others do that as well.

You write right from your heart. Life indeed is a circus where all of us are but puppets who came here to bide our days.
It is so good to read your writing again..
