Live Forever Poem by Kelly Iyogun

I do yearn to live forever
Though not just to be alive
But to inspire
And when at a ripe age I do expire,
I shed this fragile mortal skin
And take one of an immortal kin
So that I may continually live forever

If immortality is just a dream
May the works I leave behind scream
Not one of anguish or pain
But of a tale of soothing rain
With each throbing dance of water that falls
New life Springs forth whence it hits the floor
For I would be remembered not as a man who died
But as he whose work continues to live forever.

If my works be forgotten whilst I sleep
Let time roll back it sleeves
As I rise from whence I snooze
For my goals are not to loose
Let the winds sing of my deeds
And the leaves be filled with all the goods, mistake and corrections I did
For I am not to be gone from here
Or easily forgotten from the minds that hear
I was born to live forever
That's my inheritance I can't let go, NEVER! ! !
