Who is the winner?

Live like a candle

Melt to spread light

Till the end bright

Enlightening the soul

Nothing but some wax

At the bottom to find

Leaving a proof

Of a life turned to light

The more you give

The more you live

The more you love

The more you glow

When you live

Think of your death

When you die

Forget about your life

It’s better that you offer

Your life and light here

So that death will not claim

But an empty body, chill

Let you and your love

Live in the hearts of many

Leave it not to be buried

Nor to the fire, futile

Liberate your soul

To fly towards its abode

Never be a miser in life

Lest your end is hell

Give it to the world of living

Empty your life before its end

Let tears of gratitude be

The last gift your loved ones give

The last one to smile is the winner

The one who gets the most is the winner

When your life touches its finish line

Who will win; your life or death?
