inter vivos

Inter vivos

Can u feel the raindrops on your fingers?

Do those drops run parallel to each other

Then merge without a trace?

Walking on the grass

If your eyes fell on a butterfly

Have you ever taken time out

Just to at it, gaze?

Did you kiss your beloved as you left for work

Saying sweet things, hugging tight just before you left?

The flames from the candle

Has it let your fingers, let go through it unharmed?

When your heart breaks

Is there no sound?

When its night, has it ever happened

That you have stood, counting the stars

Looking at the moon

And thought that someone like you

Is also gazing at the sky

Someone… is waiting for you too…

Have you ever felt tiny hands clutch your fingers?

Felt a tiny heartbeat against your palm?

Have you seen the big drops of tears

Which can wet your eyes

And make your heart ache like never before…

Do you have someone to be with you?

Who will be forever by your sides?

A shoulder you can lean on

Whenever you cry

If you have missed these

Assuredly you have missed life…
