on returning
to a beginning
you will miss nothing
that you did not love
you will miss nothing
that you loved
for you will be beyond
ending
intention
already
determined action
be thus peaceful
and filled with acceptance
whenever you leave
otherwise: stay
another day
and find Eternity in decay

With jaw dropped low I am in Awe...and misunderstanding. XD Very deep write. Very well written. I like it very much. Thank you. And I shall see another day thanks to my friends.

The exit line puzzles me because I can't understand how Eternity can decay. The rest of the poem is straight forward and easily understandable. I wish you the best of luck in the contest.
Sincerely,
Leo Long

No Poet ...
not Eternity that CAN decay ... but Eternity IN decay ... The seed must die of itself to be able to grow ...
