Like Alchemists,
we seek an answer.
We experiment with different elements,
fusing ourselves
over the fire of our hearts.
Like Alchemists,
we long for an answer.
The answer lies within.
But our vision is hazy
due to the smoke.
All we see is the elixir of hope,
and as we join hands,
we choke.
Like Alchemists,
we thought.
But like fools we really were.
To think that we could be
twin flames.

Don't you see?
She's trying to please
everyone around her.
She doesn't want to lose
The people she loves.
Pleasing everyone is hard, being perfect is harder.
She doesn't want to lose everyone .
Yet she doesn't know that she is losing herself in the process.
And she is almost long, long gone.
