In Millions of Ways

In millions of ways, oh life,

You have, emphatically, declared to me

That

A mortal being I was

But

I, stubbornly, defied your declaration
 
Thus

Many highways of hope did I build
 
And

Many edifices of dreams have I erected
 
During

My passing through your planes of existence

As if I were immortal,

Although

My heart, its mortal nature, knew very well

From the beginning!

Sotto Poet Date: 9/16/2021 11:09:00 AM Dear friend, Demetrios, you've written a clever and thought-provoking verse that is quite amazing. We all believe that we will have eternal life, yet subconsciously we recognize that it is merely a trip that will take things to a whole new phase of ourselves.
