In Life

In life, we all have a life
Life becomes lifeless 
When they are no ambition
For life it’s an epitome of ambition.

An ambitious fellow
Wanting to outlive people’s lives
 Conversing secretly in a telepathy
Consent of the life owner not sought 
As death eavesdrop holding a Dane gun
And take life off our lives.

In life, we have but one life
We all must kiss life goodbye
As some have done yesterday,
Today and tomorrow more we bid farewell
And become a lifeless being.
