Loves Lives On
We stand here; hand in hand, face to
face
Preparing to embark into a dark and
dangerous place
To the land without rain; through the
fire and the flames
Into a darkness with many, many
names
Fueled only by our blind bliss
Energy of a lifetime from just one
single, passionate kiss
The pure rejuvination of hearts
turned lethargic
A love as easily kindled as a candle's
wick
It burns with an ember that's vividly
red
And silence much louder than the
words unsaid
All those before us have lived and
are now gone
And yet, and still, love lives on
