Poem

We serve people in surroundings seeking service, satisfaction and simple pleasures in return
When someone dies, same is snatched away and we shed tears thinking how we will survive alone

Grief gives a glimpse of innate selfishness of humans who are sorrowful for self even at death.
Grief grows when we are guilty and our guilty conscience pricks

Dwelling deep within, we detect desires and dependence as root cause of despondency
If we selflessly serve somebody sacrificing self satisfaction at the altar of service we seldom have sorrow

Mind makes miseries through mean musings
Meditation and mindfulness mitigate miseries
When mind is in the moment in front, our miseries end and we experience bountiful bliss 

Death's deadly blow marks the death of suffering for many
Those who are detached and love selflessly rejoice at death for suffering of loved ones has ceased

Wise wisely welcome death as they are prepared for its presence and perceive permanence of soul

While speaking learned words, you are mourning for what is not worthy of grief. Those who are wise lament neither for the living nor for the dead. 
BHAGAVAD-GITA 2.11

All created beings are unmanifest in their beginning, manifest in their interim state, and unmanifest again when annihilated. So what need is there for lamentation? 
BHAGAVAD-GITA 2.28
