Covet eternity’s idiomatic spectacle,

To indulge in the sensual bliss of birth,

In the point of reality exist,

To taste the resplendent fruits of earth.

I wistfully hanker for perpetual existence,

I dread to bid farewell to an imperfect world,

My inclinations have been invariably fulfilled,

Yet this anxiously lingers to be unfurled.

Immortality-you breed an unslaked zeal

For the insipid humanity to fabricate,

The embrace of death genes constant repulsion,

As an inevitable cosmopolitan fate.

I habitually gape at your inconceivable swagger,

For which I solicitously aspire,

For your tantalising, alluring seduction

Ignited in a stifling, eternal fire.
