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 |

Then why, pray tell me, do memories feel so tangible? |

The appearance here is minimal Brief, for all it tries to be Pretending while becoming transparent Yet everyone still allowed to see ============================ 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 ============================= when one writes like this ... one will never be invisible. and I do so enjoy the way your poetic mind works ... "Pretending while becoming transparent Yet everyone still allowed to see" "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" Deep Deep Deep ... you wear it well my friend. very cool poem ... cadence kissed wisdom. We wish ourselves beautiful, |
