I
Arm in arm
Let’s move like we swam
In the rivers of beautiful but challenging Cupid
Ignoring many comments like “They are stupid,
Leave them be,
Later they’ll see,
That feeling is foolishness”
II
Arm in arm
Let’s move like swans
And step into old age’s jacuzzi
Swimming as we smile and look back
At the carcass of our green selves stacked on the shelves
And look at our mobile happy products beaming happily in youth
And feel the fulfilment of life as we sail in peace with no lurking worries
III
Arm in arm
Let’s hold hands
Caring not about the darkness which awaits
Nor the heat which is palpable even at this time of life
And taunts from our future graves which never promises to save
Knowing we’re companies no matter who steps in first
Because truly, we are the perfect pack God made after one of his deserved rest
