If Life Was a Game

If life was a game Loving would not be magical Neither a breathtaking journey For love is an honour, a blessing Bestowed upon the beloved Inspiring humanity to see the world brightly, With goodness and sweetness in the midst So, love is dignified feeling about reality, Whereas game is about getting fun If life was a game Then there would be no faith Because faith is all about belief, With something worthy to hold on to, Whereas game embraces contests; If life was a game May be the truth would be forbidden For the truth is a commitment, To the just world, and route to perfection But game is all about amusement If life was a game May be no one would be loyal For loyalty is an art, of being devoted to the truth But game is a pursuit for winning; If life was a game There would be no need to be good, Because goodness is a moral obligation- -Leading to eternity, Whereas game is competitive obligation Oh! If life was a game May be there would not be much worth living for For every creature would be a contestant Fighting for the prize For what more could we do? Except seeking pleasure- -Signing our names on admired places Imagine if pleasure was the sole good, With every creature yearning in desire The whole world would sink in a funny mood
