Can I Skip Death?
I am like a budding three-year-old,
questioning the many wonders of life:
first asking why,
why must we all die?
Die, causing the pain to create
tears, which sprout out from an internal well inside
my loved ones’ tear ducts.
I take no delight in the feeling of an
endless stream of seasoned tears flowing down my cheeks,
unable to catch them all with a tissue, eventually
falling on my lap, and then my face following after it.
I will not be consumed anymore, not even for a single second
by this rythmatic, sancranized pattern of life expectancies
that demands that I need to prepare for
death. I will not, I will not do it.
I will not die. I will love, live, forever.
