Favorite Quote:
"Poetry is thoughts that breathe and words that burn"


Infinity is endless;

More than a million possibilities.

Imagine if we were deathless.

Where time is timeless,

We develop new curiosities.

Infinity is endless.

You could be ageless

And live to see eternities.

Imagine if we were deathless.

Don't be hopeless, nor faithless. 

Impossibilities will become possibilities.

Infinity is endless.


If today you are careless,

You'll miss opportunities.

But, imagine if we were deathless

Be reckless,

Forget about the formalities.

Infinity is endless,

Just imagine if we were deathless


The author's comments:

This poem is a villanelle. It was an arduous process to write it, but it was worth it.

This poem is a reflection of how some times people prefer to go safe and do not take risks. But what individuals do not understand is that they need to be reckless, to follow their heart regardless of what others might say or think.
