Castle On The Beach

What good is it
For a man or woman
To spend their entire lives
In helping other people
Spending all their energy
Money and time
Sacrificing their lives

But ends up in hell
For eternity?

It is like someone who
Builds spectacular sand
Castle on the beach
That will be washed away
When the waves come

Temporary satisfaction?
Idealistic altruism?
Overbearing super ego?
Self glory?
Pride?

If good deed is done
For any conceivable reason
Other than true love
For a fellow men

It is truly nothing more
Than a sand castle
On the beach
