Love and Death
Take a deep breath before you leap
Love and death are locked in an embrace
Fall off the cliff together happily ever after
Roll off the mountains memories
Hang on to sleep as it resembles death
Sink into love as something warm and cuddly
Buried in each other at the bottom of forever
Arm in arm to rise again
Resurrected on the last day as one lover
Sharp rocks and bliss can take you far
Stumble in the dark as strangers drunk
Fall with the night from up above in love
Watch that last step from the mountain
Land gently in the chamber bed
And in the morning another lover comes
Not the same but just as lost and dumb
Touched with the essence of raw charm
More handsome than the rest of death
With an air of mystery, a kiss, a misstep
Later on, under the bridge
Where noisy water falls
Crashing on to rocks to shape them smooth
Love and death walk enchanted hand in hand
Gather thoughts along the river mouth
Breath oxygen and pray life stays the same
Take fragility by the hand
The taste for living on will linger
Things don't last forever
Exhale when it is over
Pain and pleasure captured
In their spell of here and now
Draw from the river streams true thoughts
Drink the same poisons that are truth
Almost twins to the bitter end as friends
Love is so penetrating
Death is as stark
Both are such enigmas
Take a moment to appreciate
Love and death go too far
Under the covered water falls
