I Guess We Weren'T Really Pilots

At one time, we flew. Nothing could stop our momentum. There was a path forged in the time that we made for each other. You stepped in and stopped my madness. Atleast for a short time. You gave me peace. For this period of love, we both knew it's beauty but we both soon forgot. In time, we left love in the dark. At one time, we flew. Although we crashed, and our wings were badly burned, I've kept my eyes on love. Though it's not the love I had for you. It's the love for the only thing you gave me that matters anymore. Now we are teaching Rio how to fly. Her wings are every beautiful piece of us that we ever had to give. It's unfortunate ours were catching fire. At one time, we flew. D.R.L.
