For what is eternal
May 23rd, 2009 by Mariana Gorjão

For what is eternal
And for what is not
For what in life you can find
And in death you will lose.
Can you still stand
Day after day
Striking to obtain
What will never
Be truly yours?

For what is eternal
And for what is not
For what in life you can find
And in death you will lose.
Can you still stand
Day after day
Striking to obtain
What will never
Be truly yours?
Loved it!
What is truly important in life? That is a life long quest. I am very proud of your reflections on these matters.
Bravo!

Esta é uma questão que me coloco todos os dias, por isso o poema toca-me particularmente. Porque colocá-la pressupõe um certo desencanto crítico relativamente à experiência da vida, não deixo, como todos os outros, de achar surpreendente que tenhas consciência tão cedo da possibilidade desta interrogação.
