Immortality Of Men Poem by Adams King

Immortality Of Men

Rating: 4.3


While in this bed but coffin called
Which to all must be fulfilled
As life and death are at war
The mysteries are still concealed

But if, if I die by chance
Because someday I know I will
Play this music for men to dance
Death is fake and life is real

Still when you are gathered on earth
To celebrate my wake keep
Say not that I went with death
For I'm only in a deep sleep

While ingrave a day shall come
When I shall rise to live
And death will I overcome
For this I strongly believe

So I live with less worries and pains
In the thought of immortality
For if I die we shall meet again
Somewhere across the bridge

I will surely prove to you all
That men only go to sleep awhile
To rise and fall and rise when we fall
Such is nature's imperfect wiles

So be not afraid of death my friend
Embrace it with your heart
For death is surely not the end
It marks another life to start

I'll live engulfed from my mortal body
Which lie to rot slowly away
It is certain for everybody
Just let the fool have it's way

'o be not afraid of death my friend Embrace it with your heart For death is surely not the end It marks another life to start' Yeah, death is just a change. There is life after death. It is just the soul shedding old garbs. A nice poem indeed. Congrats.

Beautiful poem. So much fear of death has been instilled that we often lose our rationality about valuing life live in love and unity.
