Sealed Fate


What would it be like
To kiss those lips
That seal my fate
That leave me dead

What would it take
For torturous life to end
To leave me awakened
After silence sheds

What would it be like
To be happy just one day
With you within my heart
With you within my arms

Would it last, Just as long
As the lifetime of Divine Mothers' grace
Safely tucked away from all of life's trouble
From all of life's displeasing harms

I am a adventures man
I have taken bouts
Lonesome trips
Sailed my boat against currents
Purposely got lost 

But why is it the fear
That trembles me most dear
Is the one owned by your beauty
And your gracious eyes so clear

Perhaps I am a coward 
And cannot muster sound
Perhaps one day I'll know those lips
And feet will never touch the ground.
