The Truth Of Life Poem by Swapan Deep Singh

The Truth Of Life



When the heart stops throbbing,
When the body becomes frail,
When the kin start sobbing,
And blows the saddening gale;
Then man has to face;
Face the face; the life’s horrible face.

No soul, no feeling, no breath.
The ultimate truth of life is death.

When one dies, he becomes history.
His soul departs leaving behind;
A futile carcass, an empty mind.
And death remains an unsolved mystery.

Nice poem - a bitter truth, openly shared. All of us know we have to die, and yet we act oblivious of it in our daily lives. What is true awareness is a matter of another discussion, or perhaps realization. Great to see such maturity at your age... Well done!
