People said, ‘Life is a mYSTERY to be solved!'
I took it as a challenge & tried to solve it!
I took it as a puzzle & tried to crack it.
On my way, I tried to find all the clues,
That may help me to solve this mystery!
I walked through a crowd,
To feel the deafening silence within myself!
I walked through the shore,
To feel the waves rise and fall!
I walked on a riverbank,
To feel the shimmering river!
I trudged past a jungle,
To feel the bliss of nature!
I flew through the sky,
To feel the feeling of flying.
I wandered alone in darkness,
To feel the sound of silence!
I went down the sea,
To feel the life of water.
I strolled through a Desert,
To feel what is it to be sand!
I climbed up a mountain,
To feel the top of the world.
I left no stone unturned,
I left no work undone.
Just to solve the puzzle called LIFE!
I tried to find signs everywhere,
I tied to decode codes everywhere
Just to solve an enigma called LIVING!
Then I realized, I was wrong.
Many people took LIFE as a puzzle,
And tried to solve it; everybody failing!
I have known that,
Life is a mystery...
It is not to be solved,
It has to be lived!
It has to be enjoyed,
It has to be cherished and relished.
And that day, I got answers to all my questions,
Answers to my joys, sorrows, pains and happiness!
Answers to all the puzzles, trials and tribulations.
And I solved the mystery of LIFE,
By living It, Enjoying It, Cherishing It and relishing it!!
