When does death come?
When your cherished memories become irrelevant
When your dreams fail to kindle fire in your heart
When you cannot recognize your old friends
When the world around you becomes predictable and dull.
When does life come?
When you erase old memories
to create new ones
on the notebook of life
When your eyes begin seeing
the dreams you have never thought of
When you learn to move on
to discover new ties
When the world does not control you;you control the world.
Believe it or not, my friend
But life comes just after death.
