As I Lay Dying There

Part I

From the far most epicenter of human civilization an arch bending over to touch my mortal

To feel the touch of my dilating iris- as I lay dying there..

As I lay dying there, in your arms to die my mortal

Forever living in the city of pride, for pride and my nature they dwell togetherFor in my death they say died a mighty warrior

So here I lay dying, mocking my sins forever.

Of old age; of chain inhaling

Something STILL pushed my sins to far nadirFor your touch the medicine, a beast being offered a chance to live..

2/3

Of nature of death, death dwelling forever in my nature

No water washed my hands of my sinsFor my chest that claimed the dagger, oh! Brother, why you gave thy mortal.

Part II

The radiance still young; young the blood of my passion

Still can not just deliver the domain of my dimension

My hands still red, for I just killed

Perhaps to see you again, perhaps to hide in my shameReason is my faith, but I still realize that pain; while dying he simply said your name

Part III

Between men and coward I come in between; between faith and religion I just gave your nameTwenty years in that room; just your thoughts and me

When they asked to promulgate; your name I said..

For this was his last, for this was my faith, for with no religion- I just remembered thy nameTwenty years I saw an epic saga being said

Of our love, our faithA saga whose ombudsman was my mortal. Words my brother was thy blood.

Part IV

As here I lay today, dying in your arms; I feel no regrets I feel no painFor in your love oh! Angel, in the death of my blood I saw gain.

If the creator sees me today; dyinghe shall smile as I smiled that day

When we were given daggers, that would have killed; but the blood would have been the same

For my brother and me, we were born together, we lived, we ate.. We were egalitariansHow could we would have differed when it came to love; nor could we differ when our motherland called us

But then that day, that moment, that sin..In his blood I saw gaingain to touch you, gain to return your love with love, for either he or this blatant lover of yours could have kissed thy immortal face.

Part V

Those two little girls whom we gave our nameIn there smile I see pride overlooking my shame..

For a wise man once said:

In love, there lies a true angel, who knows when to smile

Perhaps when you are. Perhaps when you will be..for you shallLive again
