BEYOND THE SUNSET

Unseen and untold
Open to only a love soft and pure
A love so faithful and set to devotion
You'd call it perfect

You and I have upheld our ground
Our hearts burn with love
Even as our past fields have fell to ash
Right in front of us

Forts have been abandoned
Fires have broke loose
But we've stood our ground
Kept our place
And we know what it means to die

Beyond the crystal seas
Is a clear sparkling waterfall
Leading all that is precious enough to go there
To a place I don’t have to explain

Beyond the horizon
Is a stinging yellow vortex
Cut into sections
Stitched together and we'll meet at the same one
Bound it to our life
Feed it the strength to go on

Beyond the sunset
Is a vast open plain
Open to all who dare to go there
Softly and tenderly we reach
We'll make it someday
We're attached to it somehow

Beyond life
Is such a wonderful place
But the chances of actually going at the same time
Are breathless
Even when the most tempting of pleasures call
We don't budge
We uphold our place next to each other
And hopefully our love will guide us home
Together for eternity
And even after
