One drop of blood
One pinpricked finger
One oath for life
One oath forever

Only one
From the beginning
Only one
Until the end

Only one
Sun in the sky
Only one
Last painful cry

One is not
A lonely number
One dreams of one
Deep in slumber

Only one
The light will bring
Only one
For me will sing

Only one
Lives on in me
Only one
There can be.

ShannonM:  this was a very cool concept:

One is not
A lonely number
One dreams of one
Deep in slumber

I like the unique perspective to that stanza.

Excellent write, Shannon...the flow was great and you expressed the thoughts so creatively!  I love it...

it was love that first drew me,
it is love that will keep me here...
now I see love burning brightly
when everything else is unclear...
