What is Life?

by Santanu Halder

Life
an abracadabra
ab initio ad infinitum
only one sequence reigns
sequenceless
unpredictable
unforeseeable
incalculable.

Past
history
future
wrapped in mystery
present
Hamletian conflict
to be or not to be

Sorrows, sufferings
a reality
happiness
a guest
the years, months, days
stealing
the span of life.

Yet
we live to hope
and hope to live
and we dream and love
and walk.
This is Life.
