Will I die

Will I die, father?

Yes,
my Son,

you will,
my son,

one day.

Then tell me why,
why should I even try
to do the things I do?

What is the point,
if my life
will only lead
to an end,

then what was the need
for it to begin?

In all the things I do,
what is the point in doing them?

If I can not take it
with me when I go,
why take it up in hand at all?

This I want to know
and these answers I do seek.
