So Long

So long my friend, my lover, my enemy so long we have held hands and danced around the fire of our youth Ignorant to the days, the years lost in the love of our lust, our bodies, our minds Now the awakening of our dream has come you reject me you persecute me like Jesus on the cross I am lost to you, the fire has gone out I blow and tend to the burning embers frantically trying to rekindle the passion of years past with no fuel to add Like a soulless heretic you cast my body upon the coals to smother what air is left to feed the flames Sacrilege! I die we die it is the end my love you let go and run I watch from my smokey cloud above in shame and accept the change to come So long my love
