To Immortality

I have never died before. To this day, I'd never seen the Evermore And though many years have come to pass, The life within me still holds fast. But I know there will come a day When Death will greet me, and I'll say, "I have but one question for You: Is life a lie, or is it true?" But to do so ere that grand day comes Only spoils the sweetness of Midsummer's plums.
