Dare To Defeat
What is my life nothing but a canoe of paper on water
Either wind or flood will determine its face and fate
My soul is on borrowed on loan and my body is barter
I sparingly distribute love but in return get but hate

Life is an endless tether and on its both ends there is pain
Pleasure at times may come out of sunburst to give hope
From the birth till death I am standing to face sheer disdain
Constantly I am trying not to write on to keep clean envelope

But dust even if refined and purified goes back to the dust
Soul being the gift of light by lover will embrace his feet
So with clear intention to keep my heart clean is but must
Then no power on earth can beat or even dare to defeat
