Forever I'll live awaiting my imminent death...

Sorry I haven't posted the second chapter but I'm sure I'll be able to update in the coming week. I hope whoever reads this feels just a little more inspired about despair and mortality.

How hollow I grow

How many I've shown

The years I have to age

And yet when I turn to face my days

I learn they are mine alone

And little does time

Convince me its right

To take my years away

Though I am afraid

I relish the limelight

And all I did not say

How I almost wish

I could resist

The urge to live forever

That there's yet to measure

And I'll be missed

Though I know I'll never

True, I am not dead

By a logical stead

But logic nears demise

I squint to keep my sight

For though it hasn't fled

I won't know when I'm dead

Well, that's all for now. Thanks to whoever's reading this. Let me know what you think of the poem and of Jacknife.

Signed,

Inescapably uninteresting

(I just wanted to try that out)
