Tranquility- I Did It My Way
No standard definition or measure for love,
No specific age for intense emotions in a heart,
Feelings so tender as innocent as dove,
Yet can shake up and tear apart!
Could know only when I grew a little old,
Still not far away from feelings of youth,
My hair wore a shine of knowledgeable gold,
Who can deny me tranquility, now my truth !
Comprehend and evaluate, was I out of my mind ?
Had I found the reason of my starving soul ?
Spiritual being was getting a constant grind,
Strange empty life, was intellect the only goal ?
I did it my way, irrespective of degree of an age,
Soulful, it didn't depend upon the bodily cage !!
