Awaken Before Death
I gaze at the drop that lies below me,
and I begin to fall into the depth of the rocky sea.
I am not dead;
For I know I cannot Truly die
until I look into your eyes one last time.
And see everything and all, that I have revealed.
Faster and faster, I fall;
My eyes are shut, covered from the icy wind.
Time may seem to travel fast, but all
I know and feel is the love I hold for you.
The love that I will always have, and have always hid.
As I'm falling, I imagine myself in your arms.
Your arms, that I wish to know, my only true home.
The home that I have dreamt of, that makes me feel safe and never alone.
The one place that vanishes my fears and harms.
I begin to feel the the waters mist
as I arrive closer to my fall.
But before my body plunges into sea,
I feel your lips upon mine,
that form a true kiss.
And I awake;
For I know I cannot Truly die
Until I look into your eyes,
one
last
time.

kinda brought my soul into a different realm..
i feel my eyes staring at someone else,, somehow feeling closer than ever to something unknown..
imaginary indeed..
