Nihilist

You talk to me

Like we've known each other all our lives

But what does that define

When we've lived

Since the beginning of time

When we watched the first dawn together

When we saw life crumble

And rise again

Evolved into something greater

But never enough to find us

For we found beauty in nothing

We only had each other

We weren't like the rest

For our eyes have seen more

Than any human to breathe

Or rest with the soil

We know the balance

Lured by a snake

We found another way

To know reality together

Your voice ċȧrėsses my name

Like two doves snuggling in a great tree

Above a plateau full of blooming life

Your words become lyrics to lullabies

That seizes the death looming at night

And puts the world to sleep

Wrapped in a blanket of your tone

Soothed by your thoughts

You take care of me

Your little sister

Because to this day

Even if we've lived for eons

Or a single day

You will always manage

To know how to keep me
