Poem 1
Her heart stirred, she smiled
looking at the face she loved.
His eyes mirrored hope
remembering their lost love
crushed by fate, re-awakened

Poem 2
Where is the light that lived within,
Why has the flame of doubt appeared.
The trees bend slightly in the wind
Towards darkness, now have you veered.
Focus on the things dear to you,
Where is the light that lived within.
Your day will come before it's through,
You that have, not died, with sin.
Deep in your soul, you seek therein
The pleasures, that should not have been.
Where is the light that lived within.
Questions of how this came and when
How long have you abandoned life
What have you done, where have you been,
Will you choose to remain in strife
Where is the light, that lived within.
