To Every One

The sun is for every one,
But it's not equally bright
For each mortal under the sun -
Some seem not to see the light…

The rain falls on every one,
But not each being will be wet -
Some can take shelter or run,
Some are always well-prepared…

It comes inevitably 
To every being - chilly Death.
It closes all eyes - coldly,
Impassively - takes each last breath…
