The flick of a grin
Eyes wide with joyful hysterics
dancing in their arms
Has life ever felt so good?
The clock's hands cover my eyes
Skin aged, bones frayed
But still their arms are honey
Sweet and warm
I blink and now it is cold
My legs are jelly, my eyes are old
Stiff as I am, I still see
The flicker of their grin
Eyes wide, hysterical
Laying in their arms,
Has death every felt so good?
