Make Much of Eternity Date: Monday, 1st November 2004 @ 08:26:17 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: Yodo And if for eternity I had to wait To see what I became Then failed did I For all is vain. And wait to see what future brought To listen for the strains of Fate That never could be sung Forever would I wait. To the virgins: make much of time You don't live long enough Ash to ash, dust to dust We're all made of Earthen stuff. See the sky but build your stairs No one has much time Eternity stays for none Carpe infinitas This poem is Copyright © Yodo Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
