If only lived forever

If only we lived forever,
We'd have enough time to rectify our mistakes.
We'd have enough time to learn all the lessons unlearned.
We'd all live life to the fullest.
Without fear.
Maybe we'd all be in persuit of happiness,
We'd learn to heal and mend our broken hearts.

If only we lived forever.
We'd take things easy.
We'd watch the sun set over mountains,
And plunge it's nose into the open seas.
The air would be light,
The fire flies would light up every night.
We all would have assurance that tomorrow comes.

Maybe we would head out to the beaten path.
We'd uncover the mysterious of the universe,
And answer the riddles of the vastness of eternity.
What would be hunger?
What would be thirst?
What would be death?
Could we all be stars?
Could we all journey beyond our minds,
And venture beyond our might?
Could we love with all our hearts,
And be beyond mankind?
If only we lived forever

Author's Note
Since the age of time one question that gave mankind sleepless nights is what if we lived forever?
What could we achieve, how great could we be?
I guess we can never know, only keep wondering
