Once I wanted to be immortal!

Once I wanted to be immortal
Experience each pleasure;
life had to offer
And live each dream;
my imagination did proffer
But then I saw;
and then I felt
Each pleasure came with pain;
that dreams were a loss,
and not a gain
Once I wanted to be immortal
Live each day;
with laughter and with joy
And love the whole world;
beauty and its clever ploy
But then I saw;
and then I felt
The joy was dull and fake;
happiness, only a dose of opium
Love was but a farce;
dispensed from an egoistic podium
Once I wanted to be immortal;
yes I wanted to live forever
To experience all the wisdom of the world;
all the lessons life could teach,
dumb and clever
Now I just want to fade away;
and dissolve without a trace
And sleep a blissful sleep;
away from time and space
Now every trace of my presence,
I just want to erase
All the glory and the blaze;
the kudos and the praise
Go where there is no more me;
no more desires, no more ambition
Where all is always silent,
within the realm of the Great Magician
