Nature Is The Only One

Due to your money and assets wealthy friends are your gain
But at the end of life's journey this all seems in vain
As fame and success comes to nothing in the end
Since we are only mere mortals why otherwise pretend
We are what we think we are as some do like to say
Perhaps i see life in a cynical way
I believe that my neighbour's jack russell terrier is no less a mortal than i
The only difference is that he does not realize that he was born for to die
Mother Earth who supplies us with our every need
Is suffering because of us and our selfishness and greed
The one on whom we depend on for to live
Yet we take and take from her and in return to her little give
Immortality for any human being is based on a lie
And Nature is the only one not destined for to die.
