Life Distilled

LIFE DISTILLED


What is the true meaning of life?
    If not to vanquish our fears and strife;
We walk through relations, we walk through flame
    Seldom do we realize that they both are the same.

They handle it so dearly, with love and care
    The sacred affiliation that dilated with share;
The more you give, the more you have left with you
    But the alliance was such that it grew and grew.

Life is tainted with monstrous and dissolute passions
    Which drive men on the trail of their singular obsessions;
But soft footsteps that follow the lone devotee
    Dreams, masked in disguise, he couldn't foresee.

Problems ricocheting back to where they are born
    Chances to redeem the old sins, our lives adorn;
Death unpurified and imposed to gape
    While life lay distilled in its purest shape.

~Azhar~
