Alive

Have you ever been swept off your feet?

So deep in thought you haven’t sleep in weeks?

She came over me and wept on knees

It was like she felt death on my cheeks

Who could say if I were ever alive?

But one could think of no better demise

Who searches forever for signs

Always seeming to be the end of times

I am elusive, smooth through the shadows

You conclude that I have died through the battles

I am unaware of myself

Because you have prepared me no help

A mystery, my existence

I’m listening, for a witness

To whisper me into presence

An entryway out of Heaven

Right into vengeance

Waiting for you to mention

Romance isn’t dead, neither honor nor chivalry

They lie in ashes awaiting rekindling

Living within me, within my vicinity

If never acknowledged, it can not be

Hard to see, but they are alive
