Eternal Slumber
By Salum
Eternal slumber.
So peaceful, and so quiet.
If only we could
simply buy it.
But alas, it has no price.
It takes years of sacrifice.
Many more years than one can fathom.
I have heard…
Whispers
of this slumber…
After your life is done, a new task begins.
The choice is yours to make.
On what path you will take.
Millions
of years will pass…
Before the end of your new task.
Then yet
another new existence will come.
So many millions of years…
So
many new tasks…
New tasks to serve the universe…
Billions,
maybe trillions of years will pass…
Before the time will come at
last.
When we get to sleep forever…
In the peaceful, quiet
eternal slumber…
