In the poem "Death Be Not Proud" by John Donne, the lines "Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me" and "One short sleep past, we wake eternally" convey the idea that death's power is an illusion. The speaker challenges death's authority by asserting that it cannot truly destroy the soul or bring an end to existence, as life continues beyond death in eternal wakefulness.
