Eternal sleep

Eternal sleep

A Poem by Marina N. Lovrić

If I were a person
into eternal sleep I would fold
and dream of the Tree ;
when I grow old

They told me I'm an amaranth ,
never to wither nor die ;
my roots are entwined ,
in my grave I lie

It's unraveling
the electrons are moving slow ,
At long last I see ;
this void is starting to grow

Ominous silence ;
I hear my breath ;
gasp ; shudder ; the Tree ;
and Death

Thank you for reading! :)
Respect, Marina

I did read a few of your poems. You indeed write beautifully and magically.

A true words smith, a true poet, a true magician.
