Immortality Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Set deep in labyrinths of this mind, feelings jump about,
trying to form a story and bring it out in the open.

Looking inward, seeking outwards, all the while formulating
bits and pieces of a story in this mind.

Fragments floating in and around like a jigsaw puzzle,
waiting to be put together and found out by it's ending
picture.

Illuminating insides of this mind, blue light shines and
brings all parts together to form a story or a poem.

All blending together beautifully as the blue light seals
it tightly within, keeping it safe forever, never allowing
it to be forgotten.

Set deep in the labyrinths of this mind, words come together
so they can be written from this blue, setting them on paper
for all to view.

Giving self immortality for a future when I can no longer
be here.

An immortality only words can give a mortal like myself, setting
a place at the table of lives to come, where all abide within
the books of time forevermore, whether we are here or have
passed on.
