Why I am not made out of stone

Why am I not made out of stone
I would live forever, wouldn't I.
I might weather a little in a rain or snow
But I will be here, won't I.

Why am I not made out of metal
I would never die, wouldn't I
I might rust a little in a rain or snow
But I won't disappear, won't I.

Why am I not made out of wood
If fire won't burn me I'll be fine
I might fade a little in a rain or snow
But I am not THAT vain, am I.

Why am  I not a sculptor or painter
or crafter or writer or else
I would have made me out of wood or stone
or metal or anything else.

Alas, I feel that Death is with me
Like a loving and faithful friend
I will disappear, won't I, won't I
But how I wish I was something else.
