Fading Embers
She ran into the darkness of the woodland
The silvery moon cast shadows on the pathway
She appeared like a magical mirage
Her long white dress floated
creating a fairy like vision
She twirled in the moonlight
star dust glowing around her
She lost her beloved
He had fallen into the arms of another
In her heart she felt no one could take his place
Lost and confused she dashed for solitude
and in the quietness of cold forest
She recalls the heartbreaking words spoken
The music, the thrill all the magic gone
Lost never to make him her own
Those magic moments gone
She clutches the strings of her heart
Words that hit deep in the soul
The fire that once burned bright
Now embers fading in the night.
Fading dreams that did not last
Time had run out to fast.
