"...living
and dying,
we feed the fire..."
Inbetween,
I want to take
your moonlight desire,
I want to take it,
lift it,
ride it
above
the clouds,
through
the stratosphere,
Oh, just to have you
so close
to me,
the need for
justifications,
the need for
any reason
outside ourselves
flares and fizzles,
like a shooting star,
everything else,
ozone,
but we,
we,
we are the beginning,
the end,
and right now-
Inbetween,
I want to stoke
your white-hot fire,
I want to hold it,
inhale it,
suck you
into my lungs,
absorbing
every molecule,
Oh, just to have you
so close
to me,
the need for air,
the need for
any reason
outside ourselves
beams and blows by,
like a rainbow,
everything else,
ether,
but we,
we,
we are the living,
promised death,
and right now-
Inbetween,
"...living
and dying,
we feed the fire..."

  • In between Living and Dying
    ...is Surviving
    and surviving well
    is learning how to ignite the fires
    to be part of them, to be them
    to be able to be a spark
    that white-hot fire

    to love life
    and burn, yearn
    with desire
    to lift another, higher
    into the fire
    and not only survive
    but to burn from within
    to feel more, than just skin
    (tho that feels great too)

    In between the fire nd flame
    survin' is the name of the game
    yet it's how live your life, that's to tame
    that's there to give, not to take
    for those that truly give add flame to fire
    really know how to live, in between
    the fire and the flame
    life and death
    ...from the begioning, to the end, my friend

    Yet, in my mind
    there is never really an end...
    only a return, a change, another chance
    another dance, more ramance
    to light that flame
    to enjoy life, another game

  • Very nice! :) Nope, never really an end, just a big circle, and us, feeding the eternal flames.

    Circle. cycle
    whatever dies
    comes back again
    beginning the beginning
    never ending the end
    everything and everyone
    comes back again
    the cycle of lilfe and death~~~~
    the circle O~O~
    'round n' round we go
    some of us go fast
    some of us go slow
    slome of us could give a fuck
    and not really care to know
    just cross your fingers
    and wish for good luck
    every day, another dollar, a few mor bucks
    life can seem to bitter n' really suck

    for me, and you it seems
    we live each day in the now,
    knowing tomorrow will be another day
    and like a friend of mine said
    "every day is new day, it's up to you
    to make it a good one" lik U n I do :)
