Eternity is...

Eternity is the sky and the moon and the stars
Eternity is our earth, and venus and mars
Eternity is the sweet sweet taste of candybars
Eternity is.

Eternity is the shy smile on your face
Eternity is the whole human race
Eternity is the never-ending chase
Eternity is.


Eternity is waiting in line
Eternity is searching for a sign
Eternity is buying some time
Eternity is.

Eternity is the trust in your eye
Eternity is the hidden lie
Eternity is when you say goodbye
Eternity is.

Eternity is forever more
Eternity is the open door
Eternity is the sea and the shore
Eternity is.

Eternity is your sweet, gentle kiss
Eternity is our hidden bliss
Eternity is simply this.
Eternity is.

  1. Great topic to write about.
    -pokes username-
    Eternity can be forever and you captured that magnificently.
    I especially love the third line in the first stanza.
    Sweet.

  2. That you also struggle sustaining the four-feet rhythm (like most of the other entries) is hardly surprising considering this is your debut on the site - and what a fantastic debut it is. Not only have you chosen a very challenging title/topic, but you have also dressed it with a wide array of highly effective (and original) metaphors.

    My favourites? "Eternity is when you say goodbye." "Eternity is simply this." Truly the stuff of greatness. Wordvoodoo is so much the richer for you joining. :)
