Unlived Life

Unlived Life

Remained lost in the web of relationships,
kept running here and there in crowd,
kept shouting in market
to buy something,
or sometimes, to sell something.
Ultimately I myself remained
being sold in this world
from one corner to another.

Though I was 
in the effort to live life,
but, was unaware of life itself.
Time kept living me,
and I remained deprived of time.

Though tried my best
to remain abreast of the whole world,
but, I was not aware of myself.
Now when death is knocking the door,
I have realized
I too had a life
which remained totally unlived.


Thank You,
Swami Aaron
