This is so sad. You have captured the feelings of loss and pain so well here. The fact that the immortal has to stand by and watch everyone they care for die is for me captured perfectly by the third stanza. I love the way it ends too seeming to show no hope as life stretches out into interminable loneliness. |

Rarely I see people write about this topic, and I think you did well. You created a character whose sadness overrides any other emotion that is felt within. You captured the loneliness well and this person is tired of being alive on this earth. He knows the pain of loss but cannot find it in himself. There is much he can do anymore. There is an interesting perspective here too. All of his friends and loved ones have passed away and it is difficult for him, but the irony is it's difficult to make more friends because he knows what will happen, it's just a vicious cycle of repeating life. No wonder why immortality is a curse. Great write. |
As always, you done very well with the prompt given. You captured the grief and loneliness that this immortal person holds within perfectly. |
