Immortality Poems

Lucky kids

I wish we were still young and brave
Playing around and run all day
We would eat our lunch and go out to play
Climb tall trees and to God we would pray

We would scream at night playing hide and seek
We would hurt our knees and dive into a creek 
And we had bruises all over our bodies
When

Genes And Aging

There is a hush inside the bone,
A silver thread the stars have known,
It winds within the blood’s slow stream
And carries time like drifting dream.

The lilacs bloom, then fade to dust,
The hands grow soft, then stiff with rust,
And all the while, the silent spark
Dims gently in the growing dark.

It is not sorrow, not regret,
But something deeper,

Premium MemberThe curse of immortality

The curse of immortality

Live always in the world, in the universe, and alone
No age, no childhood, no adult life, no old age. Non
Just live continuously, can’t stop life, just live. A life

Always a life, cannot change, always the same life
Horrible this life, prison from immortality; no death
Oh, why? When is the death? When coming? Hell!

Hell!

Premium MemberCain's Exile of Inherent Beingness

Mark

The earth turns its face from you
as if ashamed. You
who tilled the soil, now marked
by what the soil received.
Your brother's blood—
how it murmurs, how it screams.
Deafness would be a mercy.

Wanderer

At Babel, you watch them build
their tongues a discordance of hope.
You know better.
The tower falls. Always, things fall.
In Athens, questions hang in the air
like ripe fruit.

       I would like to be a flower

       a gift of love’s everlasting power

The Godlike Bliss

Dear Breath, will you truly forsake me?
Dearest Death, will you be kind to me?
My favourite Life, are you satisfied?
My quintessential self, do you truly possess this demeanour?

Temporary happiness is always godlike bliss,
Permanence is a dutiful curse.
The more I look for profound beauty,
The more I go far away from my salient appetite.

Karma never forgives anyone,
Building a

Premium MemberI am Shakespeare

Across the years, 400 plus, my stories endlessly play out their parts.
I played not on painted stage, but I knew the human heart - 
I captured, with quill and scratch, the passions of laughter and tears.
I held up a mirror, in doublet and verse, to things unbound by years,
like the weight of grief, the lightness

I wasn’t born into this world to fly with platinum wings.
I wasn’t born to carry a golden light.

I will be remembered,  my legacy will carry on.

I never craved immortality.
The Sisters' Fate has brought me down a path.
Where my inner voices.
My words.
 My pen.
Designed a different destiny.

I will be remembered, my legacy will carry on.

The Whimsical Tryst

In a realm beyond existence's mist,
Where dreams and reality coexist,
Two souls embraced in a playful tryst, 
Beyond mortal constraints, they resist.


 A fairy dance’s eternal kiss, 
 Whispering secrets behind their wrist,
 In this enchanted afterlife, they assist,
The mundane in a world that does not exist.


 They laugh and frolic, no rules to enlist,
 Immortality

You're gone
I will never 
see you
touch you
breath you in
again. But 
in my words
you will be
immortalized.
I assure you 
my darling
that with my pen 
as witness
you will be painted
in deep strokes
of ink to lie penned
onto supple paper.
I will describe
your laugh
your eyes
the way you 
tuck your hair
behind your ear.
You will and 
have already been
quoted
described
and yes,
cried over
page after page
baptized

An Eternal Immortality

Seeming of a blessing, that morphs into a heavy curse
Infinite youth behind old eyes that behold a library of stories
Every generation is what writes in themselves the next verse
And the chains of morality fall off as do the endless worries

Love becomes seamless and turns passion into gray shadows
What defines worth is the eventuality of an

I once was torn
With what was 
What will be
Now I see the present 
As immortality
Death as an illusion
That preys on the perception of time
The friend that will release me
From the presence of my mind
Lost in the absence 
A guild from the void
Death can not have me
My light will never be
Destroyed
