I Am Dying Day-By-Day

I am dying day-by-day But still I want to live one more day To change the system of our country To change the thinking of our human brains I am from a backward caste With many hopes and with torn clothes Still I am first in the class But nobody want to sit beside me I am alone and the race is with me That day I already died But still I want to live one more day To change the caste system To change the human thinking When I was 19 A girl loved me sincerely She want to live her whole life with me And she never bothered about my caste and religion My love went in deep and deep Where our souls cannot be seperated But our religions came in between She is muslim and I am hindu Their parents bet us badly And seperated forever She married someother And I died once again Still I want to live one more day To change the differences in religions To establish a new religion called human religion A widow in my village Who's husband died in her young age I want to give her a new life I thought to marry her This village people against me and her Saying a widow cannot be remarried She should stay alone for the whole life I tried a lot to get her But I finally failed And I died once again But still I want to live one more day To change these superstitious believes To change the human nature I am dying day-by-day But still I want to live one more day
