Who Would Hold Me Then?
Who would grieve my passing?
What would I pass from?
Or pass to?
Who would hold me then?
Strange thoughts for a woman making love, but they're mine
as we embrace
clinging
wishing for one more second.
It is a joyful thing to be desired by another, even when lust leads to possession.
Possess me now.
It is enough.

Felt the poignancy of the proximity of the two subjects.
Many literally grasp at making love to chase away the fear of death. Wars are often times of prolific sexual activity for that reason.
These lines must be the questions of many at any time of life without an idea of afterlife:

It is very philosophical for the mind to wander in this way during lovemaking.
The subject of death brought up by the question would have been a morbid moment had it gone beyond just thoughts.
If there was a loud utterance of these words it may have been funny or awkward.

Interesting. Would whispering the question, "Will you still love me when I'm dead?" be exciting or a turn-off? Maybe I should try it on a man.
