If only I'd found love in something that never loved before.
The stars, shimmering off moonlit rivers, would sing for us, Walking hand in hand, beside you. Authoring the pages of our laughter, You would covet words never spoken from your searching eyes, your reaching fingers. Songs and poetry would flow from the ballpoint fingers we interlace.
But this love is naught found in reality, Only found in death. The textbook mind with unmistakable power, The chapped lips continually trembling. The beast locking doorknobs and car handles, The creature shaping children's nightmares. In death, where nothing exists but itself, His sweeping arms would blanket the civilian he desires, No arguments, Death receives his utmost wishes entirely always.
Death would cradle his lover in passion. Death's infatuation would match no other man in the entirety of human existence. Death would linger with each wisp of life escaping his lovers body, Sipping them through his curled tongue like tobacco smoke. Death would never lose his lover, Death would find his lover in eternity and reincarnate her into flesh again, The most bloodless cycle of all.
If only I'd found love in something that never loved before. But this love is naught found in reality, Only found in death, The most bloodless cycle of all.
