If Life is to live Death is dead to me Why should I grasp the knowledge of mortality? If in Life I live to be Because I live a livelly Life, There is no death in me, There is only Life, blowing the breath I breathe, And I stand here, almost inertly, to receive it. My life is compassed by an impassible moment There is neither past nor future, For the past is forgotten and the future unknow There is only this very moment I come to complete If I live, Life lives within me If I die, Life goes with me Life to which a single moment alights, Unsolved mixture of reality and fantasy Who am I to conceive it?...though I seek and I seek... As opposed to death, Life circumscribes living I feel free within Life's prison(death) So that my mind surpasses it I will only forgive death If death forgets me I will only die If eternity dies before me ©Gibson Email.Gibson Gibson's Menu Princess Fée's Library |
