Poetry: Immortality

Immortality is ultimate freedom,
as well as ultimate imprisonment.

what would you do, but sit in your room?

Were the question asked of me,
"Would I like immortality?"
I would reply without delay,
"no thanks, I'll die someday."

    Without ever feeling them pass.
    The world laughs, the world cries
    But nothing ever lasts

    So immortal we pretend to be
    Living life half-heartedly
