Once a fire
Burning within
Two hearts

The consumption
Of the psyche
The ashes  
Where they part

Their's was a world
Of glee and grace
Hearts that beat
At a faster pace

Even though
No heart broke
Upon white lies
Their conscience
Choked

Words that fall
From lips that tremble
The eyes of hearts
Blinded in time
We were there
So far from here
In a better
Vanished mind
