Where once you clung to me like ivy,



And your roots dissolved into mine.



And where the sun obliterated



Each shadow, cast inside our souls.



Where once the coals burned,



And the heat emitted, seared our hearts



To sustain the fires; burning within.



And where once the butterflies,



Entered, beating their tiny wings so fast.



And always the scents of you



Enveloped me and made me drowsy,



Drugged with the ecstasy found,



Where once the ocean met the sand



And caressed it with tenderness



Lapping the shores with wanting.



And so each of us were blinded,



By a crystal moon, that consumed.
