Lazy Susan

She's the girl... I left behind... The girl inside... Who blew your mind... The girl without... A care or thought... The girl who left... With a broken heart... She's grown older... He's grown cold... Their life together... Remains untold... Their dreams and passions... Exist in time... Forgotten feelings... She longs to find... Extinguished fires... From a lovers flame... With charcoaled ashes... Now who's to blame... His love had scared her... So she ran away... But, dying inside her... Was a longing to stay... Love's what she wanted... But, love doesn't last... Because love is a shadow... That dwells in the past... copyright2011@jaynesumner
