'Tis Why

'Tis Why

Because I shall endure what time does take
From all, legacy is my desire
Eternal life through minds and thoughts raptured
Filled with those words of mine ne’er dying self

With only short time to love, look, linger
All fair beauty seen I treasure greater
Since time will dull precious sheen held daily
Brevity is beauty on an infinite scale

So ‘tis why when I have fears of that end
Love and fame float e’er higher above flesh
I shall not lament but Live even more
For Death will come, and i will cease to be.
