Truthful Reflection

 Truthful Reflection

The end is near,

don't wait till it knocks you down

Yes time is ticking fast 

racing more than your pace!

Its time to recount 

all your past glories-

better release countless pains & hurts

we might have accumulated the filth 

with such pride & care!

Ironically the weight is pulling us down 

robbing us of all the charm of life!

Before its too late let's do it once for all!

Know that you have to leave-

an imminent departure you have to proceed

before that make sure you are ready 

with all you can lay your hands on now 

know none of it you can carry in your next journey

No name or fame ; not a penny of your wealth

not even your closest dear ones

you have to leave it all here forever

for you can't afford to take or transfer any of it

Your ownnership ceases with your end

How tragic is that you must be apprehensive

You are left with no choice

 but you can save yourself from lament

of not getting to know the real essence of Life!

Save for the big Day 

letting go all that will not stay

You might wonder then what will pay

for all that you have given to this life & its ways

of course there's much more to look forward

much more to redeem

once you are gone there is still

 your existence reveal

All the impressions, all the understanding 

you gain from every event 

you make your own choice of taking a stand 

you feel fair, just & right

all this is going to stay with you

wherever you proceed 

to your next destination 

or you may evade that too 

negating every possible trace of your identity

liberating your very existence to eternity

of Blissfulness unlimited!
