This Is The Only Life Poem by Aftab Alam

We must love the living Creature
How formidable they are!
To hate a human is bad
It is said by my Dad,
We must love the human kind
Sudden, her thought came in my mind
Third day three people came with complain
Teach your Son, he must keep refrain
No sooner dad shouted,
Came shivering
Like a wet poor mouse,
I had been there
At the corner of my house
I requested, please answer me
Did I harm? You see
What harm if desire we keep
Dreaming ever
Whether awake or asleep
True love from heaven that comes
You all are nothing but poisonous germs
Have you not done this at your prime?
Love a ‘Love’, never been a crime
My father gave me a nice beat
When I shouted, got a seat
Then her father came and apologized
Fault of my daughter, he summarized
We married and became husband and wife
She sung love song and I played fife
This is the only life, this is the only life
Her song was such
Hand in hand we strife
Singing and sinking
This is the only life
