Exist And Exit

by Jose B. Cabajar

Unaware I came into existence,
Naked yet clothed with innocence,
Bathed with my mother’s blood,
Old folks heard me cry and were so glad.
I came not into this unknown sphere by my own will,
Surely, it is God’s blessed will.
Childhood to adulthood in this muddled world,
My soul is bothered by that sin of old.
Fears of life threaten my hidden dreams,
Dream after dream, full of screams,
Subtly intrudes my subliminal mind,
My will to live is almost gone as sweet wine.
What kind of existence do I have?
Unique life that other creatures don’t have,
With body, soul and spirit,
Unlike a dog that howl along the filthy street,
Higher and nobler form of life,
So short, so precious a life,
A fragile life under threat,
Lives forever after my death,
Friends see me today… my visible presence,
Soon I’ll be gone… my absence.
I brought nothing into this world,
I will carry nothing out of this world,
After my vision becomes a reality,
When my life’s purpose be fulfilled in equity,
Telling the world how to be saved,
Sharing the gifts that my Master gave,
I will exit from this sin-tainted place,
An appointed time to behold my Saviour’s face,
Blood-bought and blood-washed – I’m Christ’s servant,
Exist… exit… the best of eternity comes!
