WHY DO WE LIVE?


Life is not easy for anyone
Death is always easier in comparison

Life can be a lot of fun for some
or an endless sequence of pain
seemingly impossible to overcome
when all your struggles go in vain

But what’s fun to be dead?
Neither can you get happy nor sad!
You only feel while you’re alive,
insensitive you become when you die.

Life brings in new hope, every moment you hop on
brings in a new life to you, you can become a new you.
Making use of the very next moment,
you can change the course every instant.

You’re the reservoir of infinite power and energy,
your positive thoughts & attitude bring in synergy.
Life has got all the potential to change for better,
not just yours but the whole world's, which matter.

There is no problem, for which you can’t find a solution.
Don’t just live for yourself, living for others should be your mission.
Only the cowards choose to end their lives & leave all the tension.
They only needed us to mention that suicide is NEVER an option!


This poem is an entry to a contest where the theme for the poem to be submitted is
"Suicide is not an option"

I'd also like to encourage readers here to read the inspiring story of @dwinblood of how he realized that committing suicide is NOT an easy way out and how surviving is more fun in spite of all the challenges of life.

Positively well said! Best of luck on your entry.

Thank you for your wishes @bilbop! Yes luck, I surely need that now ...only that can help this entry against yours 😉 Thanks a lot!!!

My pleasure. Always best wishes from me.

Very nice. This is my favourite line of your poem.

"Don’t just live for yourself, living for others should be your mission."

You've made a great entry in the contest!

Thank you @kus-knee for appreciating this piece! You have zeroed in on the most important line. I can tell from my experiences that when we live for others, focus of all our thoughts and worries changes from inward to outward and it really helps in coming out from any negative thought or depression concerning our own-self.

Thank you for reading! If you can appreciate this piece then I can understand how much humble and gentle as a person you are! Thank you so much for being what you are! It certainly sent good vibes towards me.
