As evening falls around us
we're both too young to die
seeing your smile breaking
I hope and watch and cry

The night is getting darker
your beauty I will miss
there's nothing more to watch now
but still we do exist

Then-in the darkest hour
while no sound can be heard
and as i think it's over
I hear the singing of bird

See me growing now stronger
the morning will arise
the evil lives no longer
a phoenix never dies

Very nicely done. If you don't mind...your title inspired me.

Of love; it's passions sweeter side,
It's gentleness like rain.
It soothes the hurting part of us,
And wins out over pain.

Of hate; it's bitter and rebuke,
It's passion gone arye.
It's hurtful and it does consume,
All that is close by.

In all we do within our lives,
These feelings we must temper.
For either left to run amuck,
Can kill as if were pepper.

(was stuck on a rhyming word at the end there. Thought of too much pepper spoils the broth. No reference to our sweet Pepper...lol)
