Godlike Longevity
Why must life be so short,
And time so dear?
What if one lived for longer?
No longer death feared.
To be a killer,
To be a king,
To be a hero,
with waxen wings!
To be a laborer,
To be a lord,
To be feared and respected,
Commanding great hordes.
To be successful,
Oh, to have fame!
To be loved and admired
To honor my name.
To live a thousand lifetimes,
And still to be young!
How sweet that might taste
If death were undone.
You're such a fantastic poet!
