Life and death, two sides of a coin .
So close they stand yet undefined.
No one sees when they leave or come,
But in a moment, a part of life they become.
Life can be stopped but death can not.
It is an unasked for gift that we have got.
Death marks the end, and life the beginning,
Life is demanding, Death forgiving.
Death follows life, or life follows death,
No one really knows as yet.
In this tune of presence and absence,
We are anything but omniscient.
And unknown to us this will remain,
Because death and life their cycle will regain.
