In Life, Ephemeral In Death, Oblique
One in the same
Together Unique
While Life is a series of Twists and turns
Death is a summary of what someone has learned
This is a story of a boy and a girl
Who lived their lives in a very small world
The boy had planned on a very long day
While the girl was eager on passing away
He wanted to travel from place to place
She wanted to depart with a hurried pace
The man living Life, thought to be immune
As the girl's luck seemed to run inopportune
Both deciding to repudiate
All the lies they were told, designed to obliterate
The form of his optimism left in his wake
And the shape of her sorrow giving her heartache
Death seems so bleak, avoiding the light
Life a beautiful lie, it’s truths it will not cite
Searching for items from origins of avarice
Seeing the world from her eyes of pure justice
Rendering their actions in Life and Death Tedious
His logic, complex and seeming sarcastic
Her logic, ironic maybe even fantastic
An entreatment for guidance was all that he sought
A plethora of skepticism deepens the plot
Their mindsets so morbid, often inordinate
Hearken the call and quit with the obstinate
Exploring the abstruse way of life
Creating a way to progress without strife
Life forcing his early resignation
Resonant in her memories
She plummets into lamentation

Both outer sides are two different voices and the center is both voices in unison.
This was an old final project I made my sophomore year.
