The appearance here is minimal
Brief, for all it tries to be
Pretending while becoming transparent
Yet everyone still allowed to see
The portrayal, while temporary,
Is thus all the more adored
And infinite in its grace
Where each memory is stored
Time and space does not exist
Compared to the absolute
One can’t buy what one cannot barter
This, the eternal truth
Gradually all things are lost
And faded from mortal eyes
Like water between the hands
Like death even, when we die
Pointless in the end of it all
Making life less miserable
I feel as if a rumor of a whole
As I am becoming, invisible

You express thoughts I had these days, so I can relate.

Your visibility through this wonderful poem is greatly enjoyed here!

Nothing fades within the embrace of Love.

Love,

You, becoming "invisible"? ~ Au contraire, mon frere! The more I read your poetry, the more real you become. ~ Deep, multi-faceted ~ and talented, to be sure.

Love & Poet Llight,
Linda

All of us my friend are becoming invisible.
Born visible and then become, in differing degrees, 'invisible'.

CG,

I did come back - twice.  And I like this poem and have thought a lot about it.  I don't have anything profound to share, other than I want to read it again.  It's like thoughts are on the tip of my brain, but I can't express them yet.

Again - I'll be back.
