if we live forever

if we live forever
my love
may remain unrequited
may wait eternal
shy in immortal chance
in halcyon devotion
without pressing passion
or desire to conquer;

to conquer your
provocative strut
as strutting i do too
for lest rejection
ever chance i would wait
til perfection my front
with an ultimate charming
introductory line
as true as my desire

but if we live forever
nothing can be ultimate
and should you not linger near
given, even infinite chances
i may not find one
in rain of random droplets

thus my love
will never be understood
and me be eternally haunted
by regrets.
so bless you the fleeting life!
for evoking the vital
i shall wait no longer!
