Poem

I cried in the darkness of my mother's womb
And i cry in the darkness of my rotten tomb
Forgotten

Just as I forgot that I entered the world naked
Yet accumulated wealth as I waited
Only to leave once again ...naked

Why did i think so highly of myself?
Was it my wealth that i left behind?
Was i so strong? Was it my mind?
Always right - never wrong?
Or did i live so long
in warmth and health?

But my life was but a breath
A dream that ended at death.
