Pyramid Not Build

Every stone brick put in its place
It occupies large space
Up the pyramid leads the staircase
The monuments inside show pharos face

Even thou pyramids stood long time showing their grace
It is so easy for time things to erase 
And in forgotten words are hard to retrace
And lost love ones nothing can replace

Yet ancient Egyptians believed death is just a transitional phase
That although body dies soul cannot be destroyed by time, war or fiery blaze
And I believe after death you go to a place with beauty that will amaze
As upon its immortal visage the soul will gaze

But some say pyramid is just lots of stone
It cannot save the soul alone
But destiny beyond the grave is unknown
And to mortal eyes it is not shown

One might argue that even if pyramid is build
It is just nice looking monument covering large field
And it is the celestial pyramid that needs to be build
And it is a process which cannot be fulfilled

For like tower of Babel it will fall
And with it hope of a soul
But I believe we will reach that goal
When knights of Giewont Mountain awaken gift of life to extol
