Wanting to be Immortal

Posted by

Isn’t it natural?

To want to meet yourself, to want to see yourself through someone else’s eyes, to know what others think when they see you – the first time, every time, the last time?

I want to.

I would often ask those friends whom I can trust to tell the truth – “What did you think of me when you first saw me?”

They’d be brutal. But honest ?

I haven’t asked this question in a long while now…I hadn’t given myself the space and time to think of it. Until tonight.

Tonight I feel like I want to be captured as words of a poem, as smiles in a picture, in clicks of a camera, as laughter in voice notes, as expressions in videos, as something.

For an author, the highest praise is prose about you.

Sometimes I just wished that someone would make me immortal as I make my memories.

Hehe…such a fanciful notion.
