The True Abode

A story is life

Written with a sharp edged knife

Strife, suffering all shout

This is what life is all about

Happiness too can pierce darkness

But one wants a true abode with all fairness

Where is that abode

We keep changing it once aboard

A mystery is life

Like behind a veil stands a beautiful wife

Only after death is an abode given

The tomb stands between the world and heaven
