The Immortaly-Lonely Man

Do you not yet comprehend the wicked secret of the immortal?
All age and die, save you.
All rot and fall to dust, save you.
Any child you bear becomes a crone and perishes before your eyes.
Any lover withers and shrinks into incontinence and bent, toothless senility.
While you,
Only you,
Never age,
Never tire,
Never fade,
Alone.

~ Dorian Gray; Penny Dreadful
