One day

 

One day there will be no shoreline.

One day there will be no trees.

One day there will be no storyline.

There will be no you or me.

One day there will be no fireflies.

One day there will be no bees.

What will be left in a void so empty?

What will be?

 

There will be no rainbows,

as no rain will flow.

There will be no sun,

therefore, no glow.

There will be no one.

No place to go.

So why not hold on to love

whilst it can still grow?

 

One day

there will be no sea.

We won’t see

the disappearing seasons.

We won’t hear the sound ceasing.

We won’t feel the earth stop breathing.

 

One day

there will be no song.

There will be no sound,

no short or long.

There will be no light,

nor any dark.

No day or night

or twilight spark.

 

So, for today

let’s hold tight. Take my hand,

feel the warmth, the blood pulsing

through my veins. Let us inspire.

Love

with the fire

of a burning star.

Enjoy every breath

as if our lungs could collapse.

Take every step as if it’s our last.

 

Dance to every beat of the heart.

Let the desire to survive rise

like a beam of light

pulsing into the skies.

Let the passion to love

ignite beautiful sunrises.

Let’s sway through the irises,

as we look deep into loving eyes.

Sing our songs to every corner of space.

Listen,

the sound of celestial spheres,

sings back to us.

 

As we speak to the moon and stars,

saying just how grateful we are.
