Immortal Soul by Abby O.


If you could live forever


What would you do


Would you find a soulmate


Or would you stay single


For you know that


One day


That boy or that girl


Would die



Would you


Sit in libraries


And read books


Acquiring a vast array


Of meaningless knowledge


Or would you


Go out and play


Enjoying your endless days



If you could live forever


Would you serve your country


Or would you stay home


Watching television


And finding other mindless ways


To live the eternal life


That you would behold


A life that many wish to have



Would you cry and cry


As you sit and watch


As your friends And family


Pass by


As memories pass by


As your happiness becomes stone


And your heart turns icy


But as you may see many consequences

Come with eternal life

For there are

Two things

That eternal life doesn't offer

Eternal Love

And Eternal Happiness

If you could live forever,what would you do

The Sun by Abby O.


The sun is rising
High and mighty
Above the dark gloomy city
People are sleeping
Babies are crying
But me I sit upon this hill
Watching the sun rise
Searching the answers to life's mysteries
Waiting upon the hill to see the mighty sun
With a bible or notebook in hand
Writing or reading
Exploring the majestic ways of the sun
Skimming through the book of all answers
Watching the sun rise
Watching the moon disappear
And the sun restore
Natural light
Peace and order
To this world
Feeling the sun's rays glisten upon my smooth dark skin
Hearing the people awaken
Grouchy and angry
For it's the start of a new day
But me I just sit here
Upon the hill
Watching the sun
