This is a story of Love
of the oasis that grows in our soul
and the burning flames that make us whole;
Of the ashes reincarnated,
the whispers unrequited,
and the return of a stranger long-invited;
Of the breezy seas in the dark
and yearning screams of the heart;
Of rains triggering every sudden flashbacks—
This is a story of Love...
of self-love and being loved back.
This is a story of Death
of the nemesis living under our beds
waiting until our sleeptime ticks;
Of the black poison that seeps into our heads
and how we try to lose it with pills we call "meds";
Of the shaking hands,
violet arms,
and shattered voices;
Of the endless battles and tired armors;
Of waking up breathing
and wanting to fight once again—
This is a story of Death
and catching another breath.
This is a story of Love and Death
and the day the two first met
