Love Beyond Death

Genre: Poetry Title: Love Beyond Death Author: John King Ayanfe © If your love is my Hercules heel Thence, I'd be ready to die a valian For you sake, I'd been a pyramid Which sinks deep into the red sea, oh My love, on the rings of Jupiter Will I carve my lines and play my flute Let the melody of my love echo from Mount Everest May the sun rise by the rhythm of my heartbeat My love, as death is to Jack, Romeo and Moremi So I give my life as a price for love I behold you as a treasure generations long to find I shall fight both men and gods to protect you I shall walk the face of the sun To bring you flowers from the abode of immortals My beloved, I eternally love you Even the dawn and dask bear me witness Death would merry whence I lay lifeless Yet love would merry more that I love you eternally For my love be unto you an imperishable seed I carve these lines as testament as love beyond death
