When we dream big, we exist
But when we wholeheartedly fulfill
Even the smallest dreams of others, we are alive.
When we want the best to happen for us, we exist
But when we do the best we can
To make ends meet in others life, we are alive.
When we do things for ourselves, we exist
But when our thoughts include
Others welfare too, we are alive.
When we try our best to get
All the happiness in the world, we exist
But when others happiness matters to us
More than ours, we are alive.
When we cry for something we couldn't achieve, we exist
But when we have tears
Because of someone else's pain, we are alive.
When we almost die to get what we want, we exist
But when we live for somebody else's dream, we are alive.
When we strive hard to succeed in our lives, we exist
But when we put extra efforts
To make life easier for others, we are alive.
When we want success at any cost, we exist
But when we don't let greed for success
Take over our human instinct, we are alive.
When we want to be all powerful, we exist
But when we have enough power
To make a difference in somebody else's life, we are alive.
When we overlook others to gain benefits, we exist
But when we overlook benefits to gain people, we are alive.
When we tend to make others suffer
For our own happiness, we exist
But when we are able to change
Someone's tears into smile, we are alive.
When we love to live, we exist
But when we live to love, we are alive.
When we think about us alone
We justify our existence
But when we are able to make others existence worthwhile
We justify our living.
Sustaining existence is easy
But when we cease to exist nothing remains.
Being alive in the best sense of the word is onerous
But it makes our existence ceaseless.
