The Great Beyond.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

The Great Beyond....



perhaps why i never
had that rose tattoo
or that desire to have
a tattoo, my name or
her name in my arm
or body or thigh, perhaps,

it is because i have
never believed in permanence
never expected forever
to keep me happy

i must admit, as early as
that moment when sadness
came, that nothing lasts
forever, except perhaps,

perhaps, when we are gone
and shall have arrived at
that Great Beyond.
