DESTINATION

Living in a World full of hustle bustle.
Click click click with those steady knuckles.
All are working for a better tomorrow.
Smiling faces accompanying their sorrows.
Life these days seems rather mundane.
There are medications to keep you sane.

Future is everyone's destination.
Present is for preparation.
Aware of uncertainty of the life.
Crises and unemployment so rife.
Count of people living in the moment is none to few,
While to it others had bid adieu.

What if today is the last station?
To worries will it be your resignation?
In quest for success, have we forgotten to live?
How to ourselves we deceive!
Will wealth bring back old times?
Are you sure tomorrow you will be fine?

What if today is the destination,
Will you live in it like you did in your imagination?
Spent countless days getting ready for tomorrow.
And then we realize it's an inescapable hollow.
Don't we know that having cherishable memories
Is success in our journeys?
