Why can't I be eternal
not pass on just one breath
I long to be forever
without a thought of death
today passes all too soon
into yesterday
waste away the tick of time
Into another day
waxing and waning
pass by unnoticed till
heart song sings to thee
soul secret seeks to spill
on paper that is bleeding
the ink of heart's desire
a soul full of longing
of envy and desire

soul secret to strong to dry
in the light of just one day
it takes eons great space of time
to tell what I would say
I have been here
I will be
on and on and still
so long as lasts humanity
soul secret seeks to spill
