A LOOK AT LIFE-79
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY

          BEFORE I DIE

Before I die 
I want to  know life,
Is it an accident or otherwise?
Is it a dream or reality?
If it is a reality
Have I lived it to the full?
Am I satisfied with me
The way I lived my life and
The way I am supposed to die
Without knowing the reality?
If it is a dream 
What is the reality
Why have I identified with it
Why have I played with images
In a world of images?

Life
Whether a dream or reality
Doesn't matter 
What matters 
Am I true to myself 
In my dream or reality?
Or deceiving me all along?
Do I love anyone
Or my love and respect, appreciation and
Recognition is for mutual gain
Am I still a stranger to myself?
Do I still feel insecure 
In the midst of everything
That makes life so gratifying?
Am I still an island in myself 
Lonely in the midst of many?
Do I really identify myself with
The product of my body and mind
The world I have created for myself
Is it of any use when I am in need?
Are peace and happiness eluding me?
Is everything nice and fine?
Or I am pretending to be happy only

Am I rich and wealthy?
If so what are my possessions
And how long they will be with me?
Am I educated, intelligent and brilliant,
If so is the genius in me has an
Answer to the question who am I?
Is life for a period of time
For momentary pleasure and transitory gain 
Or a continuous journey beyond space and time?
is life a complete wastage of time
Or a meaningful reality,  a journey towards eternity?

Am I happy with life
As I live and look at it
Or I need to add something 
To make it more meaningful and fulfilling 
Before I settle for that  unknown journey
I want to meet the inner me
Let me look within 
To know that alien me
The neglected me
Who has the answer to all my questions?
