I Asked Life Poem by Sanjukta Nag
I Asked Life
I asked life,
“Why am I still alive? ”
No answer was found.
I asked again,
“Why my cheeks are wet with rain? ”
I heard the echo of my sound.
They say,
“You have many sums to do,
That’s why you’re still on earth.”
But no one places a fair clue
Of why have I took here birth!
Is it called life
That’s obliged to come to an end?
Why after every heart-break
It becomes so difficult to mend?
One life. One death.
And my presence will be oblivious,
What I need to do
To make each of my days precious?
Then I question life,
“How will I make you please? ”
She replies this time,
“Just write without a leash.”
Though I haven’t got an idea
Whether life is simple or complicated!
All I’ve realized by now is,
Let this life not be wasted.
By realizing that this life should not be wasted, the poet has learned a lot. In short Learn you have to to take life in it, s stride.

Why after every heart-break It becomes so difficult to mend? One life. One death. And my presence will be oblivious, you are called to do great things, accomplish a lot. struggles and disappointments, pain and joy...... it is all part of life. As you grow you will know it. thank you
Life is so simple if you think not, so complex if you think, so easy if you think self, difficult if you think about others
