Burning
Flickering
Lost in the wind

What power we once had
Has turned into
Sin

Intense passion
Slowly fading
Dying

Stagnant love
Turned into a glimmer
In my eyes I thought would never return

Until I realized that to you
My life is a fun game
My heart just
A puzzle that you keep putting
Together
And taking apart

My hopes fly high
My dreams soar
“I’ve never felt like this before”
Just to hear you say

You choose her but of course
I’m still important
Because of course
What fun is love if there’s no drama
And no one willing to lay down their life for you

Why not pit me against them all
Why not laugh at the pure chaos
You’ve created
And don’t regret one bit
9 years later
