Because the Fire Has Gone All Dark

Getting it out with a good shout Now don't go and pout Deep down inside so riddled with doubt Need to find a safer route Tired of fighting these heartfelt bouts Our freedom has a way of holding the past Before you know it you have crossed the bridge to fast Having something special that would've of last Oh the regrets of today Such a heavy price we have to pay When we just want to stay out and play When respect goes a long ways You can't back up with what you say Instead, you take a different pathway I have always prayed That our friendship wouldn't decay Things get broken when we don't meet halfway Which puts us on a different highway Alone feeling like we have just run away Wanting to replay All those wonderful memories of our yesterday If you just would've understood all the love I conveyed Then I wouldn't be walking away feeling betrayed Instead of watching the sunset across the bay Bad choices that ruin a perfect ballet You just let the good times slip away Making it feel like you have overstayed Time to find a stronger airway That leads to the right kind foreplay A woman who lives up to what she portrays Rather then stowaway on the wings of a friends heart Knowing this would only break us apart You knew I wanted love from the very start Now I'm letting go as it's time to depart I walk away with a dagger through my heart Because the fire has gone all dark

It is a really beautiful poem, on most occasions it is basically pa boy who falls in love and even the friendship is destroyed, when a girl cares, boy think thst it is love but it is a friendship, when a boy cares, girl thinks that it is a friendship but in reality it is love, it is always worth a try but if in between the friendship is destroyed he regret is alwsys there, good luck my friend and have a really nice day

Relationships are tricky things.. love can sneak up on a friendship.. awesome if it sneaks up on both, but when it's just one it can easily be the end of the friendship, at least as it was before! Great write, Jack

It's risky business when friends start down this road that they can lose it all if things are not considered right from the start. Thank you, lyric man, for weighing in on this jack2.
