SURVIVE

Love can heal all wounds,
It can also cause one’s death,
Afterwards, it can revive,
With one blissful breath,
Life and love are different,
One cannot be healed,
Life is determined by fate,
And lover’s fates are sealed,
Two that must never be one,
Are love and secrecy,
Unless kept hidden,
They lose their intimacy,
In the battle called “love,”
What weapon shall we choose,
The sword, arrow or heart,
No matter, all shall lose,
Yet we do not give up,
We keep hope alive,
For that is the only way,
For our love to survive
