O Almighty
O almighty above,
Give me a reason for existence,
For having made pain in this world.
Give me a reason for life
When death is all that comes of it?
Why did you create people,
With desire to take lives of others?
Why is it that you create joy,
When that is not eternal?
I take the joy you offer
Without anticipation,
For the time it will last,
I choose to be happy.
I take the life I have,
To live it as I please,
Till death comes knocking
To prevent me from living.
I fear not the coming of the end,
I look forward with open hands.
I tread not a path, wary
Of things coming up ahead.
I worry not if others pass on by,
For I know deep in my heart,
Life is for living,
I shall meet death, not greet it.

What is pain and what is pleasure is only in our own heads. What is life, but a door to death? What is death, but a door to life? At the least, the human body after it's 'death' serves as a source of food for many living creatures. Isn't the purpose of life served then?
Only hoping the pain you are going through is not too bad to be borne.
