Life after life
The old age
The days where beauties fade
Where energy, independence, health and bug for worldly affairs are caged
Like a bird, and won't be freed until soul reaches last abode
I wonder why there's such a chase after fame
When only on earth it glitters like a gold
I still ponder and wonder why there's such a chase after money
When in the last home, it can't lighten up the night, let alone the morning
I wonder why the stress for a sparkling skin
When wrinkles feed on skin as the lifetime spin
Fear grips, when I see humans seizing fortune by force
When it has no value when soul is put to an eternal pause
And hard-won life, driven by WILL
Is being enjoyed by another souls under the same word WILL
To you, it means more than gold, because it's an account of your life WILL
To them, your sweat they enjoy after you passed only form a part of theirs
Oh my fellow young souls! My dears
Why put your golden years?
And last home in danger
To feed a flesh and life that's fleeting and won't help in danger.
