Ashes 2 Love
One can only hope
Unless probably depending on
the certain circumstance under
which the couple split
And whether or not you we're
in fact the one who left or the
one got left
And simply are somehow
unable to let go
That long after the disappointment
pain and hurt have settled down
afterwards
That the initial spark of attraction
that ignited their desire to want to
go out with each other in the
1st place
That in the beginning burnt and
raged like an uncontrollable
wild bush fire
Will also eventually over time
die out if it is not stoked and
has fresh fuel poured on it
And if it is to be dampened
irreversibly
And the fire does go out it
becomes virtually impossible
to reignite
And it's then all about the clear
up and seeing if there is anything
left worth salvaging
Other than Ashes
