Sunrise, Sunset

You told me why

You are afraid to die

You spoke the words I think at night

and thus we fall even deeper

Awake, my sleeper

You were the dream which didn't let me rise

The enigma in your eyes

I realize now

I will live my life

Looking for someone who shares my thoughts on death

I will be your dead poet

You will cry at my funeral

Not for the death, the parting

You are smarter than to give in thusly

But as you said

Time has won

Time will always win
