What We Say Or Do

What We Say Or Do

 

The seeds have all been planted

The flowers fully bloomed

The vows have all been spoken

Between the bride and groom

 

Prayers sometimes go unanswered

Songs we hear sound out of tune

The stars twinkle their brightest

On the dark side of the moon

 

The earth still breathes beneath us

Despite all of it's impending doom

The grass may not always be greener

Through the fence where lovers lume

 

Happiness may be the goal

But the journeys' ours to choose

Some things are the way they are

No matter what we say or do

 

Hold on to what's important

With enough love to fill the room

Because loneliness is a disease

To which no one is immune

Notes

Lume: "more than love"

When you adore something or someone to an indescribable level, you "lume" it/them.

It is to be used very carefully, so it's meaning stays strong.
