The Lovers from Hollow by Angela Winter

The Lovers

Once, so long ago,
We were clothed in time
Life began with death
A swollen fruit between us as a bind

A snake slithered through the brush
In undulating waves
Your skin shivered in the hush
The choice before us one already made

Created from the dust of stars
Eternity was nearly ours
We loved, and for a time,
The whole world was alive
Is alive
The whole world is alive
Is alive

One divides in two
And suffering begins
What’s lost can’t be reduced
And freedom gained is worth the price of truth

Now we both should know
The folly in the fall
And fools surrender most
Emerging from the love that binds us all

Created from the dust of stars
Eternity was nearly ours
We loved, and for a time,
The whole world was alive
Is alive
The whole world is alive
Is alive
