A face I once knew disintegrates before me. You hold before me a mirror of the person I once knew, but it is no longer you who is looking through. Your eyes morph to stained glass silhouettes as of the flame of your being flickers to embers. The greater my cries, the quicker our demise. A cast of the woman I once knew vacantly looks through, and yet my heart still beats for you.

Embers
A face I once knew disintegrates before me. You hold before me a mirror of the person I once knew, but it is no longer you who is looking through. Your eyes morph to stained glass silhouettes as of the flame of your being flickers to embers. The greater my cries, the quicker our demise. A cast of the woman I once knew vacantly looks through, and yet my heart still beats for you.
