The Portal

 
Death is the ever mysterious inevitable,
The only sure thing that life will always bestow,
An unpredictable yet random variable,
Never knowing when or how one will ever go.

Death is the final culmination of life,
Sometimes leaving some in astonishment,
Unbiased in the choosing of its recipient,
Regardless of the list of accomplishments.

It’s the unavoidable sound certainty,
For death it doesn’t matter who you are,
It can be far or it can come out of nowhere,
It doesn’t care even if you’re a superstar.

Death makes us ponder about destiny and fate,
Appreciating things more presently, fervently…
But death is the portal to another dimension,
Where mortals transcend into eternity.
