Love Live And Expire Poem by Nyx C Styx

The Suns stretches her morning fire
and overcasts the darkness of the night before
what might all this world be without desire
What might we be if we stopped asking for more

Who are we if not bedded on greed
We take the love we do not deserve
We do know what we do not need
destroying what we cannot preserve

Men are lost to the tempest tost
and women slaves by their own chains
both are equally and utterly lost
aware of themselves only when it rains

and it does not rain enough
and youth is cheap and brief
the night is cold and rough
and the sun too warm for relief

Life, is an oft misunderstood tale
Oracles claim she moves by the roll of a dice
Though my cheek and dreams be pale
I seek a life worth living twice

Wherefore I may begin again
and be born again anew
what be life without a little pain
what be the mountain climb without the view?

So rise to coming day
and see the sun set the skies on fire
the past and tomorrow were once today
Love and Live before these days expire
