Life

 


Dear life, do you know

where a man comes from and where he will go?
one man is born and another man dies.
dear life, aren't you afraid?

It is truly sad when
a man doesn't know when he is born and doesn't know even as he is dying.

Is the point of life to just die when the time comes
without knowing
why you are born and why you die
to simply eat and drink in life

without any idea?

Ah, life happens only once
should you live your life as it is and when the time comes
grow old, get sick, and moan with pain
turn into a handful of dirt after getting buried in a grave. Is that enough?

Ah, this is not what life should be; no, it shouldn't be like this

people said that there is another world across the river
there is truly another world beyond the heavens


Buddha said that and Jesus said that so
it is not a lie
the person who does not believe; this person is a liar

Ah, my dear
do you know how to get to that world?
as for me, I  truly know
This is the truth. The truth, it is really, really true.
