Analysis of Philosophy Of Life
When rain intended
To drown me, in it
I became the ocean
When the darkness came
To scare me,
I became the sun
When the wind of hatred came
To blow and scatter me
I became a perfume of love
Then, I realized it
I lived as the ocean
To bear and wear all
I stayed a light, as the sun
And enlightened, upon each one
Being a perfume of love
I became and stayed a human
And constituted humanity
Consequently,
I understood and won life
It is a peace of mind and soul
It is life, which we have forgotten
