Eternity

  • Contest: Love Poetry

  • It has been rediscovered.
    What? Eternity.
    It is the sea fled
    With the sun.

    Sentinel soul,
    We whisper confession
    Of the empty night
    And the fiery day.

    From human prayers,
    From common spirits
    You free yourself
    And thus you fly.
  • Since from you alone,
    Satin embers,
    Duty breathes
    No one says: at last.

    No hope here,
    No emergence.
    Knowledge with patience,
    Torment is certain.

    It has been rediscovered.
    What? Eternity.
    It is the sea fled
    with the sun.
