The Last Time I Knew

For me, only you are worth of my own
The closest I will get in heaven
Is between you and the space between us
Only love can hurt us this time.
Heart like the day we doubted this affection
We at the mercy of the universe,
Utter lack of space and tides,
Let's accolade the life we build,
I know we stuck in the world we created,
Melting eyes is the only anthem we collaborate.
Atleast we tried,
You the only part I'm frightened to leave behind.

How can love be this deadly?
Now I know why the symbol is red
Our ancestors knew,
It's bloody struggles live chains of distress
Concur
Is the sign of defeat
We did try to be civilized like the girl and boy you know
Only God's hand can save us now.
