Should We Die This Night
Our hearts agree, if we should meet death this night,
then death shall find, we do not heed its sense of doom.
A thousand times we would gladly die without fright
just to taste once more the nectar of our love’s bloom.
There is but one requested answer we need know,
just one more promise, one honest vow to be made
before imminent death does finality bestow;
our mutual pledge said with sought prayerful aid
that as soulmates, our two spirits remain love bound.
We can handle death rendering our bodies hushed,
but swear our shared agony shall bear piercing sound
in galaxies echo if our joining is crushed.
We believe our hearts paired in eternities care
is a brighter eternal force than death’s lit fuse.
Our confidence asserts our love outweighs despair
and our soul-link shall survive all doomsday issues.
With our oath now sealed, we lay skin to skin entwined.
Our passionate kiss, laced with tears of sweetheart taste,
does emphasize our love’s want of life for all time
and belief that looming doom cannot our love waste.
