Fact of Life

The fact of life is when I die..
No one's bothered no one would cry..!!
The friends I have, would all be gone..
Knowing the sorrows would last only till the next dawn..!!
The world only cares when you are up and high..
On the death bed alone would I lie..!!
All there is the faith I have..
The one up above would always have my back..!!
He is my father and he is my only true friend..
He is my guardian angel, with him around I have nothing to dread..!!
Through all my happiness and my sorrows..
He has always been there..!!
But I have always been blind to him..
Always took him for granted and gave his share..!!
And only got to know the value of eyes..
When the darkness came along with the darkness of night..!!
No one stayed around, and was left all alone.. 
Lost in the darkness left to die..!!
He still forgave me, and stayed with me through the night...
He kept me safe in his arms, till came the light..!!  
The fact of life is when I die..
No one's bothered no one would cry..!!
The friends I have, would all be gone..
Knowing the sorrows would last only till the next dawn..!!
