Life Is Still Worthwhile
Can consciousness be evolved
or is it a return to truth?
Will all our questions be solved
after the body dies, forsooth?
Perhaps our senses deceive us
and we think we see a sun rise
until such illusions leave us
along with our ears and our eyes.
Then we say, “i can see it now.
Life has been a mirage somehow.
Cosmic consciousness has returned
like a paradise we have earned.”
Death is not something we should fear
but senses say, “I like it here.”
