Oh Death!

I forgot that you ever existed till you arrived uninvited.

Where has all my ego and motivation gone in the face of death.

You showed how fragile we as a body are.

Am I just this body that will be faded in oblivion!

 

You have the reputation of being merciless; sparing none.

Do not even spare a mother feeding her baby.

Nor will I attempt to escape from you since now do I realize the helplessness of humanity.

Alas, we are so vincible and limited in our effort!

 

Finally I see the ineffectiveness of faith and human accomplishment.

We are all so helpless in the face of death.

Neither God, nor demon ever been spared by you.

Who am I; to even try to hold on to this life!

 

My elixir would be when I am long gone.

Desirelessness for the temporary world that isn’t real.

And acceptance of the truth; that we know as death.

Life goes on and nothing even matters after I’m gone.

 

I warmly welcome you Death since I see no purpose in this life.

Some say we are born out of blessing and some say as condemnation.

What are we all chasing and where will we reach in this relative existence!

Alas, in pursuit of faith; I ended up becoming an agnostic!
