No Love Like Death

Something I wrote trying to capture that moment when lovers were immortalized together in the Vesuvian eruption many many years ago.

 

No Love Like Death

 

 

Such beauty

Within this finality

Sets the stage.

Our bodies embraced,

Cued by a Vesuvian

Conclusion

With us

Encompassing

Eternity.

Very good, I loved the line "cued by a Vesuvian Conclusion". Enjoyed reading it

well that was an interesting take on death, not how i would describe it for it frankly scares me to hell, but good work

Wow - this is a perspective on death which makes it seem like a wonderful transition to eternal love, which love on earth can never be.....
