David Kavanagh Poet Free verse

Going To Live Forever

We can of course live through other peoples death,
but not our own,

which also means, we cannot experience anything 
after we die. 

and cannot be aware when we’re dead, 
just like before we’re born

So we always seem alive, from our point of view, 
“we’re immortal by our very own perception”

Sotto Poet June 2, 2021 at 7:24 AM Profound meanings, great wording, and a great subject for the contest. I wish you the best of luck in the contest. Best regards David David Kavanagh June 2, 2021 at 7:51 AM Thank you Lasaad, this extract from my original poem, is basically summing up life, from a non-religious, non-spiritual point of view, take all supposition out of the equation and this is what your left with, cheers David
