Never Die Until You Die (A Poem Of Inspiration) Poem by Arun Maji

O Man
never die
never die until you die.

dying is beautiful
but dying while living is ugly!
frighteningly ugly!

it took God aeons,
and evolution millions of years;
to make you as you are today.
don't let them down
by dying while living!

Do whatever you want to do
but go all they way, all the way.
even it means-
giving your flesh and blood
sleep and hunger
song and laughter.

working hard is not enough.
give your passion
give your heart, give your soul-
give all, all.

if you extract passion
out of a human
what is it he left with?
a piece of stinking shit!
yes, a piece of stinking shit.
nothing more, nothing less.

if you want to love, love.
love until your soul cries, heart stops;
and you cry and die.

what happens
if you are not loved in return?

who cares?
you want to love, you love.
who gives a damn
if you are not loved in return?

you do because you want to do.
not because
someone else would pat your back.
more you expect, more you suffer.
but if you work, because you want to work-
you will be blessed with joy
and divine pleasure.

did anyone ever pat Sun's back?
none, none ever.
Yet, Sun is burning to light all darkness!

did anyone ever
send a letter of gratitude to moon?
none, none ever.
Yet, while wreathing in pain,
she is smiling through tears!
Why?
Just because
she wants to.

are they stupid? are they moron?
freedom equals peace.
freer you are from bondage
happier you are.

do whatever you want to do.
do it until you fall dead.

It's the journey that is so magnificent
not the destination.
reaching destination
is entry to depression.
walk and walk alone
don't even bother of destination.

you are son of God
then why beg mercy, from another man?
If you have to beG
beg it from divinity.
if you have to bow down
bow down before God.
never beG from a beggar.

be bold, be generous, be loving
and then, whole world is yours.

O Man
never die,
never die until you die.
