ImmortalityA Poem by Rachel McLean
I once received a vial
A vial that contained nothing Nothing, besides pure Eternity Unsure of what this Eternity truly was, I kept away from it, and had nothing to do with it After a time however, my curiosity grew too strong Overwhelming my senses, it took over and so I drank every last drop of Eternity It was a blessing, Never fearing death, Never growing old, Never running out of time And then reality hit My loved ones perished before my eyes, All that I knew faded away into nothing Now, my skin refuses to bleed, And my lungs never fail to breathe, As I stand here now, wasting my life, trapped in this Immortality © 2016 Rachel McLean |
