death scares us.
but it shouldn't.
it's just a new start.
not an end
love can have an end, but not life.


Someday, you'll quit.../Without a goodbye

I know you keep lying there
under a hot day
looking at a bright sky
you'll someday leave
why do you keep falling in love
dreaming, thinking, crying or laughing
by knowing that someday you'll quit all of it?
because it's life. it's us. it's humans
it's just an end meant to be a start
nothing ends before it washes away the best of us
i know you keep looking at me like a freak
because you know i've just made a terrible mistake
but your lips are too pure to admit
that someday, somewhere, someone will quit
what we all call life
how we feel inside
hymns around us, songs and music
celebrating our temporary situation
i know it's gonna be too late
i know i wanna celebrate
but i can't.
because you're gone
before the time runs out.
before you give me your touch
your kiss, your sigh
before you left
before you can tell me goodbye...

A very romantic look at love and life and why we keep doing it. I was a little confused by the punctuation and one section in the middle,

dreaming, thinking, crying or laughing
by knowing that someday you'll quit all of it?

Should that be, despite knowing? whatever you say it with passion and that is the key to a beautiful read. Thanks for sharing it, Tai
