Burning Embers

After being together for a time of great length I have no idea how I put up with you, or where I get the strength You make me so furious, just so mad! Why do I put myself through this, if I just end up being sad? I get a reminder every morning when I turn to your side of the bed. The passion our love used to have, a fire burning such a deep red. Years pass and the fire dies down I look at you and your once glowing smile, turned into a frown. What’s changing I really don’t know Sometimes wondering if it was all a show… But in the morning, breath stinky and hair a mess I look at you and know I’m blessed. Because behind those eyes I see a spark Memories of making out in the park The only time we’d cry is when we had to say good-bye. I see something that’s keeping us alive During the screaming shouts there is something in our hearts we are trying to revive We’re trying to rekindle the burning embers When all of the sudden, not just our minds, but our hearts remember We lean in for a passionate kiss And all of the sudden, remember the feeling of bliss. And who knew that was the fuel we needed, A blissful kiss our hearts and lips have so deeply missed To rekindle our fire To rekindle our passion To rekindle our faith and trust we had in each other.
