As we lie in wait for a painless death
We sleep alone and wait with held breath
To sleep in the arms of one who cares
Not as romantic, or loves,
But as two who understand what the other bears

Wouldn't that be true beauty?
Two humans in each other's arms
Humans that are untouched by the evils
The evils of death and pain and harm

I wish there was a way that you could lay here with me
And it wouldn't be ****** or romantic in any way

But as the night was once taken
By the everlasting Death
We too must lie in hope
That Death does not return
And take us both whole
