Fulfilled Life

In life I saw a different meaning
And their definition never matched

To me what friendship ever meant
Was not how they could ever define

True love as I had envisaged
Was not how they saw love to be

Success to me was peace of mind
For them it was in counts of “haves”

I believed in being slow and steady
They always saw the fastest track

While I enjoyed the vibrant colours
They chased the gold at rainbows end

With simple pleasures and open mind
I went on to make my happy world

A bunch of friends who believe in me
And a love beyond the wildest dream

My success is in my life’s realm
While they are still wandering on

In search of peace and happiness
That they interpret by list of wants

And thus I live my life fulfilled
While they are still in search of life!
