Living Forever

Beautiful writing,
lovely words,
give eternity
to those who write.
Long after your death
or you're crippled with disease,
I'll see your writing
relate- and know what you mean.

Beautiful writing,
lovely words,
show me what you've seen.
Show me a day in 1840
when Poe was alive and breathing,
show me the day
he wrote Annabel Lee.

Show me what he felt,
make it tug at the strings of my heart.
Make me love Annabel Lee
as he did,
by a sepulcher by the sea.
