A Hundred & A Thousand

We can tell
That we’d been through hell
Because we fell for love
When we fell.

If we could wait a thousand
Why not a hundred?
Why not a whole cure,
Why just a fix from the drug store?
Why not a loss we can gain from?
Why not a befitting death?
Why not a trade off of liberties
Why not a little happier suffering?
Why not pain again and again?
Earth with its descendants of Cain?
If we can wait a hundred
Why not a thousand?
War is the miracle
That love brings.

We can tell
That we’d been through hell
Because we fell for love
When we fell.
