(All of the literature written by me was for self satisfaction. Now I started sharing them with you all. Every person has two characters. One is visible and another is invisible. This poem shows us mirror.  Today, I present my poem ‘The Market of Life! ’. This poem has been cited from my book “The Variegated Life of Emotional Hearts”.))

My introduction is available on following links.

☆ Weekly Column – Abhivyakti # 12 

☆ The Market of Life! ☆

The world

is a market of life!

 

New lives

born to sell.

Old lives

destroyed and thrown

away

from the throne.

 

None knows

the mentality of ones.

 

Some say

old is gold

some say

new to sold.

 

Requirement of new

was too much

so they purchased me

fully

when I was new.

 

Now,

I am feeling

I have nothing of mine.

Body and soul;

thoughts and mind;

pulse and heart;

each and everything

is of customer

My Master!

My Lord!

My God!

and… his highness!

 

I’m sold

thus

I’m soldier

… of LIFE!
