The Inevitable Truth!

Our journey begins from the time we are born,

And continues till eternity,

So every moment we live is a gift,

And then comes to our door the inevitable mortality...

But what I feel is that this whole is an illusion,

And death is the only truth,

Because life comes with no guarantee,

But Death comes for sure, whether kind or rude...

This world is a place of immortals,

As each and every soul here will take an exit someday,

The life after death is what will remain forever,

But what's that life? No one can say...

Life can be fair or unfair to us,

But we all are equal in Death's eyes,

Maybe we can succeed in cheating our lives,

But nothing works in front of Death, no truth, no lies...

From the time we are born each day brings us closer to Death,

Or maybe the Death starts coming closer and closer,

And when we complete our role in the drama called life,

Death arrives to tell us that our time on this earth is over...

So let's use our wisdom and make the best of our lives,

Because no one knows our next birth is towards which way,

Take everything that you can from life,

Because when life starts taking back, it even takes your breath away...
