Often I Wonder
Sometimes I Ponder
Why We Chase Life
Which is Evanescent?
We Never Know
Today or Tomorrow
Will be Mine.
Still
We Woo
Time, Money, People
Overlooking,
What we call Mine
Is Truly Not Ours.
Descended from Mother’s Womb
Empty handed
Destined to Depart Empty.
Struggling to be the Owners
Forgetting
We are the Tenants for A Time.
An Unknown Call Will Dawn on Us
On A Date Unknown
The Body Will Stop Breathing
And,
Our Souls Will Fly.
None Will Own This Body
Once The Soul Elopes.
Reduce To Ashes..
Why We Don’t Enrich Our Souls
Which Will be There With Us Till Eternity
Instead of
Enriching our Skins,
With Artificial Enamors, Grinding & Polishing.
