Is there a place called ‘Heaven’
Or am I living in ‘Heaven’
This thought drives me crazy sometimes
The more I think of it
The more I’m confused
Is there a place called ‘Hell’
Or am I living in ‘Hell’
This thought makes me mad sometimes
The more I think of it
The more I’m doubtful.
When the monstrous monsoon came
And tried to destroy my peace
I thought it was a ‘Hell’
But when I saw by beings
Holding their hands together
And caring and protecting themselves
I became proud to say it was a ‘Heaven’
Our world is a mixture of
Sweetness and bitterness
It’s like a gooseberry
First you may think
It’s so bitter and tasteless.
But after a while,
When the sweetness comes
You forget about the bitterness.
If there was only sweetness
You would have never enjoyed it
If there was only possibilities
You wouldn’t have cared
If there was only achievements
You wouldn’t have dreams.
These all make me realize
How wonderful is the world around me…
