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...
