AMBITION TO LIVE!

Blooming others lives with love; Chandan sells flowers at Marine Drive and does best with what he earns. Coming from a below poverty line status, what he is still fighting for, is his basic necessities; food, clothing and shelter. These necessities are still his biggest dreams. Every morning he takes a bow before his ambition; that is ambition to survive, ambition to live. Living in his present, he doesn’t know what his future will be. His present is his present, better than his past as he is still surviving, still living. This world has everything he has to live without. His eyes have dreams that are still searching for a changed world.

DEATH

So strange I'am feeling,

As if am walking a lonely road and my legs are peeling,

Carring a sweet pain in me,

Lying on the bed, all alone so lonely,

It's been so beautiful night today,

with full of thorns raining down all day,

I wonder am I in hell,

Or its the road to bright coming heaven, tell?

Carrying the bag of deeds on my back,

Leaving behind the money, I earned in lakh,

Memories are fading and my size is draining,

Reaching the point - no return, Oh! God its paining,

All I can see is bright and white,

Still thinking, walking and felling pain reaching the light,

My body is ripped open, legs are burning,

I can see my heart still beating and yearning,

Eyes are filled with burns and tears,

Burning, crying and dying, Oh! God I fear,

Blood is bleeding, now I feel less pain,

Watching the dawn going down, all gone in vain,

Who is born once, finally ends and dies,

But why is the question in my mind that arise!

Pain is all over, numen is in me now, for why I still strive,

My heart has stopped beating but still I'am alive.
