Live 'Til We Don't

Let’s dance on the keys ‘til the notes no longer make sense.

Let’s live ‘til we don’t, and love ‘til we do.

Let’s sing in the rain ‘til we catch a cold.

Let’s live ‘til we don’t, and love ‘til we do.

Let’s whisper ‘til we lose our voices.

Let’s live ‘til we don’t, and love ‘til we do.

Let’s smile ‘til our mouths ache.

Let’s live ‘til we don’t, and love ‘til we do.

Let’s make music ‘til no one listens.

Let’s live ‘til we don’t, and love ‘til we do.

Let’s find reason ‘til there is no rhyme.

Let’s live ‘til we don’t, and love ‘til we do.

    I don’t remember where I got the repeated phrase from, and if it’s from one of your ficlets, then I’m sorry!

    I love this one. Have you ever listened to Regina Spektor? one of her songs, On The Radio has a part that isn’t exactly your poem but very similar.

    Yes! Thank you, I’ve been trying to figure out where I got those lines, and you have reminded me!
