Lips of Life, Lips of Death

Story by Jikan Tunderiska on SoFurry

Do I want to die? Or is that at

The tip of my tongue, the life that I have

Desired? Could there be more which shows that

This life is worth living, this one is worth

Something more than death, something that can halve

This pain I feel, desire with faux mirth.

But still yet this faux mirth may still be real.

Can you prove it to me? Can you show me

The life within your lips, lips that can heal

All the wounds of my death. Can you show me?

But yet, there may still be death in your words,

Poisoning my lips, dripping down my throat.

Prove me wrong, bless lips, and sheath your sword.

So one this time, I ask: To me, devote.
