One Life...

One Life...

One Life.

All die, but few truly live,

Let me get intoxicated,

From things called prohibited,

I have the wings,

What stops me from flying!

My bucket list is still unchecked,

No fences nor travesty,

Of religion or false gods,

Celebrate life, not celibacy,

I have one life,

Let me blossom like wild flowers,

In abundance.

Appreciating all things beautiful,

Flora, fauna and woman alike,

In all purity, as should be,

No taboos, nor anything sacrosanct,

I shall break all barriers,

To litter my path, with ornaments,

Of ecstasy and bliss.

Colors of rainbow shall be my dreams,

I shall drink to my heart full,

All the poisons, that are falsely blamed,

Call me a drunkard, I scarce care,

No fear of heights nor the deepest point,

But I will be remembered for mad raptures,


A song of woods shall I sing,

My days and nights, shall I define,

But in all my endeavors,

None shall be hurt, nor malice intrude,

Just enjoying to fullest, 

The gifts are given by Lord.

Inspired will I be, by the soaring larks,

Or the deep-diving whales,

Snakes or venom shall I play with,

For protection bestowed to them,

Why should they harm me,

To see this crazy world,

I shall become insane,

No money or lust will blind me,

Nor speak endlessly, of desires ephemeral,

If in prayers my hand shall rise,

It will be clean though covered with mud,

I played in rain, my child within,

For others whose hands reek of blood of innocents, no God shall listen to them,


Mine would be for gratitude and things,

We take for granted, shining moments,

Laughter uninhibited, memories sacred,

The changing seasons, the rains or covered in sheets, warm in winter,

The childish bruises, or want of being pampered,

All shall I be grateful for,

More than a vault of gold,

I will not trade my life,

Till I exhaust all things God gave to me,

To use, rejoice, and in a state of euphoria,

Transcend the grey waters made,

No euphemism for such low mentality,

I have one life,

Till last breath, shall I dance with 

The music of life.
