Love and Death

A poem about a lost soul full of regret

Love and Death
I lie here and wait, in limbo between Heaven and Hell
I know I'm in a state, and as far as I can tell
My arms are still here, but there is a terrible odour
I don't know how to fear, and by now I should be older
Here and now there is neither heat nor cold
But my days of feeling heat or indeed wearing gold are long since gone
I left my seat and stepped into the dark blue giant, from where I heard my song
And all that seemed hopeless before, just drifted away
But I know is hopeless evermore. I turn, but there is nothing, no more to say.
