Death Unraveled

Life’s greatest mystery is Death – It’s not God, It’s not Soul, It’s not the heavens Or the laws of Nature. The inevitable end to our existence, The only sanctuary from the rigors of life, The final destination to our life’s journey; No matter which way you traverse, You are bound to end up dead! Life is like riding a horse without you holding the reins Or your feet in the stirrups, Like driving a car without your hands on the wheels Or your foot on the brakes; It’s like taking a roller coaster ride over a route of steep inclines and sharp turns with the prospects of all the thrills and heart-stopping descent! Death is life’s greatest miracle – The Absolute, Irrevocable Truth; Your only road to salvation, A portal to the soul’s ultimate metamorphosis! Ha, give me death any time, For life exacts harsh wages, Life for once might abandon you But death, It will always stand by you!
