Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Free verse

In a Million Ways

In a millions ways, oh life,

You have emphatically declared to me

That 

A mortal being I am 

But

I, stubbornly, defied your declaration 
 
Thus 

Many highways of hope I have built 
 
And 

Many edifices of dreams have I put up
 
During 

My passing through your planes of

Existence, as if I were immortal, 

Although my heart

Its

Mortality, had from the start, 

Embraced!
