Mortality For Us

Mortality for us is a fact and fact does not lie For whatever you achieve in life you eventually must die Death brings an end to worry and fear and self doubt One does have to wonder what is life about Like all other life forms we are mortals why otherwise pretend And this life journey we are on does have an end It is only the fear of death that we do fear To most people this must be obviously clear The longest lived human life in time not a long span On an average a few years more for a woman than it is for a man The oldest person i ever met of years was one hundred and four Perhaps one of her age i will meet never more A few years ago her life's journey came to an end We are born as mortals why otherwise pretend.
