For those who never tasted love

I once tasted love, and remember

It was as bitter as

This rancid air that I breathe



For those who never tasted hope

I tasted hope, and remember too

That it was as vile as

This poisoned earth that I walk



For those who never tasted faith

I then tasted faith, and I recall

It was as putrid as

These stagnate pools that I wade



For those who never tasted warmth

I have tasted warmth, I remember

That it was as cold as

The freezing life that I lived



For those who never tasted life

I taste death and feel its warm embrace

That holds me closer than

The promise life ever made



For those who never tasted death

Taste it

Swallow it

Love it.
