To Endure One Must Last

Rating: 5.0


It is here and now my struggle at last
Must be recognized.
One true sentence short of word's is but
A legacy out of grasp and now out of reach.

What is a good fruit full life bereft of
Time, mistakes repeatedly made expecting a different result?
Love, violence and death spoken truth never-ending,
While experiencing a different reality that can never come.

Hang on to love and escape from the violence the world
Is consumed with,
Yes death is our true companion a complexity of equations that
A mathematician may then scrutinize.

favorite string of words [an idea]: " mistakes repeatedly made expecting a different result? " I'd rather have " love" than " death" as a companion, but Death may 'conquer all', whereas Love may not. bri :)
