Life is fragile and hangs like a thread
similar to that of a delicate spider web
There is no assurance of how long we will live
or how much of ourselves we are willing to give
Time is brittle and easily broken
so listen to the words your heart has spoken
Let us be compassionate to those we love
for every day we breathe is a gift from above
Acquiring too much can only lead to strife
but take heed of karma in the afterlife
Before our dreams plunge us into an abyss of shattered glass
we need to believe that this too shall pass
Frantically gathering possessions is a useless endeavor
we are mortal and should comprehend
we cannot exist forever
