Lover's Unlove
Love unlove
She wanted time
She thought with it we would change
She wouldn't wait,
did she care that we hurt?
We run to put space,
For she asked for space
But why did she say she loved us
as she walked on us?
Why Stay our love as she gave up on us
We hurt and so we run and we run
till all that's real is this race with time
So all we know is time and space
And we embrace our last in solitude
Knowing only that which echoes
In a fountain of memories unclear.
Who truly knows love's most secret path?
How to un-learn its path without heartache
To unravel its knots without unveiling the heart
It's lover's unlove?, …so we run
Like a flitting wind we pass.
Flirting with death we exist,
But is it life, to live in fear
To live and run and so we soar
Thus for our spirit these wings we thank ye,
For our returned heart we thank thee verily
When all sprawled pieces are nicely put together
And we once more are whole.
We shall fly high and higher still
We will not be caught and made tame
We shan't long or need for we fear heartache
Our fragility and sensitivity allows for a passion's blaze
Dare we to try once more and lose our fire
