Better to feel
(Than be)
Blood rushes thru veins
And the heart beats,
Only one-day to complete it’s duty
While eventually earth and gods shall all come crashing down
And kingdoms & civilizations fade.
And so please, I ask you only this;
That when I leave to let me take these
Few things with me;
The moon, the sun and the stars,
And the small traces of light which
Once reflected in your eyes
That I can no longer see
