Fear of Life, Fear of Death,
Which is dearer?
Life gives you the best at all stages,
But Troubles are all you bear.
Forgotten is the Happiness in life,
Happiness now overwritten by Troubles
Troubles are like knife,
Slaughtering the body, mind and soul.
Troubles beget Worries,
And worrisome you become
Crashing from anxiety
When at the end, life succumbs
Fear of Life, Fear of Death
Which is dearer?
Death is led by what, you may ponder
Thinking it is the troubles with which you wander.
Nay, it is the Fear of the unknown,
Fear of the darkness, Fear of the judgment –
A verdict on the life of troubles you have lived
That makes you dreadful of bereavement
Fear of Life, Fear of Death
Why bother which is dearer?
Think what your answer would be,
When with one foot in the grave at Ninety
Death asks, “To your heart’s content, lived have thee?”
Put aside your worriment
And live a life that leads to eternal contentment
Fear of Life, Fear of Death
Why bother which is dearer?
