Eternity Poem by Jason Endfield

Eternity. A poem inspired by the passing of time and memory.

I saw the world in her eyes
A hundred years of life.
She once was someone's wife,
she could recall.
They married in September, this she could remember,
in the fall.
But that was all.
She couldn't see his face now
She didn't know his name
For fifty years had passed since he had gone.
The memory lived on but like her love and zest for life,
had disappeared into the mist.
Once they had kissed
and thought forever lay ahead.
And so it did.
For sometime soon
she would see
him once again
and then together they would spend
Eternity.
