If you could pop a pill that gave you eternal life
Would you take that offer and live forever more
It wouldn’t guarantee a life without any strife
But it would guarantee you won’t knock on deaths door
Would you want to live forever in an ever changing world
Getting up each day and juggling daily tasks
Would you want to live life slow or in a supersonic whirl
A life never ending dividing up into different acts
Do you think you’d become wiser and learn the perfect ways
As time provided never ending rehearsals of what not to do
Would you no longer appreciate the minutes, hours or days
Would eternal life influence your personal view
I’d hate to live forever and just go on and on
As much as I love life and feeling I belong
If I’ve got my health, family and my home
I will appreciate my time for however long!
