Youth are the cure
for all dividing insanity.
You are the antidote
to all bewitching animosity.

Don’t confuse youth as a measure
of agist conventionality.
Youth is but a sanctifying dawn,
out of the dusk of rigidity.

Youth is the spirit of play
with the forces of ominosity.
Youth is the conquest of death
into the daring pastures of duty.

Youth are absolution to habits of death.
Youth are walking illumination manifest.

As a teenager I only had one dream – immortality,
not fame, not wealth, but immortality.
I wanted to live on long after my body had perished,
and with sheer conviction I made it a reality.

Tomorrow if I fall asleep, I shall sleep contented,
for my mission will live on galvanizing brave veins.
My only regret is, I never got to raise a family,
it’s the bittersweet price a reformer has to pay.

Abi the person had to be sacrificed,
for Naskar the dream to become a reality.
Anyone who says, they have no regrets,
never dared to live up to their full capacity.

I offered up my youth to lift up the world,
even got dumped, while lost in world building.
My genes might die with me, not my dream –
One day, not long now, whole world will be kin.
