All We Have- A Love Poem

There's a terror in the streets,
where zombies stumble, need to eat,
and to survive is quite a feat-
I won't let them hurt you.

Hand in hand we'll stay alive.
We'll pass each test, we'll survive.
And in the end through will and drive-
I will save you.

And nothing can stop us, not the dead and not fate.
Nothing can kill us, for we will escape,
the destiny that we refuse to placate,
for we're better than good, we are the great
who will find a cure to alleviate
this disease that raises the dead.

And I'll fight for you live for you, cry with you, lie with you,
but heaven forbid that I die for you
for then I'd rise to hunt for you,
and so I'd rather lie to you,
and have you die first.

I won't let you lose me, I'm desperate, I'm scared.
We're being hunted, God let us be spared.
And though we're in danger, as well as we have fared,
I'm afraid I'm beginning to no longer care.

You use me, abuse me, destroy me, confuse me.
You beat me, refuse me,
and I know that you need me,
but God if I could leave thee,
in good conscious, believe me,
I would.

But I can't, so we're here, alive and intact.
Our hearts keep on beating, we're on the right track.
And as much as you hurt me, my love bounces back,
But my mind is beginning, beginning to snap.

I love you, I hate you. I need you, placate you.
But I can't escape you except in my mind.
So easy to leave you, look after but I,
But you need to keep company of me and my mind.
So until the end-

you will survive.

I will survive.

We will survive.

For survival is all we have.

  1. That is pretty awesome. I particularly like the middle bit. =] It's certainly an interesting rhythm/rhyme scheme...
