Verse 6

Death is not necessary.

There are necessary illusions
And Unnecessary illusions.

Death is an unnecessary illusion.

You have to face the reality.
The reality that you cannot escape by death.

Then you will die,
Only to wake up to the Truth...

You cannot escape!

Verse 7


The fork in the road...

Is not between
Immortality and Death.

It is between
Immortality and Suicide.

Every death is a Suicide.

Verse 8

You will not understand
What it means to be Immortal.

Because you think
You have to live till Infinity.

No.

You have to live only one day.
One Cosmic day.

Your calendar is fooling you.

On a clear day, You will discover,
You will live forever.


That's derivative.

It's a poem, so that's a moot point.
