Short Is Long Enough


If I were immortal

no hunger, no work.

no searching for things

but if life of Tithonous

is the fate of immortality

I would have none of it.

 

Life is short

and shorter is youth

but how to make the limited span

long enough for mortality?

Oh, I have found the key

to open my moments as the sky

opens to hold all luminosities.

 

Short is longer when the kissing

moments transcend all missing realities

love stamps its authority on each

passing moment making them

dynamic and endless.

My key will turn all locked up

feelings to raise hymns to heaven.
