Like All Other Life Forms

Like all other life forms we are born to die This applies to the earth worm as well as you and i On how long we live we do not have a say The Reaper of lives claims more lives every day The years go by quickly fleeting our lives prime Eventually we all become victims of time The one who claims the lives of the president, the monarch and the billionaire The Reaper of lives any life does not spare Whatever you achieve in life death is only your due That it is the great equalizer happens to be true We are only mere mortals why otherwise pretend The life journey we are on for us all comes to an end In some place or time and on some night or day The Reaper of lives will come reaping your way.
