So soon my body will have gone <br />Beyond the sound and sight of men, <br />And tho' it wakes and suffers now, <br />Its sleep will be unbroken then; <br />But oh, my frail immortal soul <br />That will not sleep forevermore, <br />A leaf borne onward by the blast, <br />A wave that never finds the shore.<br /><br />Sara Teasdale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/immortal/
