Lover's Unlove

Love unlove She wanted time She thought with it we would change She wouldn't wait, did she care that we hurt? We run to put space, For she asked for space But why did she say she loved us as she walked on us? Why Stay our love as she gave up on us We hurt and so we run and we run till all that's real is this race with time So all we know is time and space And we embrace our last in solitude Knowing only that which echoes In a fountain of memories unclear. Who truly knows love's most secret path? How to un-learn its path without heartache To unravel its knots without unveiling the heart It's lover's unlove?, …so we run Like a flitting wind we pass. Flirting with death we exist, But is it life, to live in fear To live and run and so we soar Thus for our spirit these wings we thank ye, For our returned heart we thank thee verily When all sprawled pieces are nicely put together And we once more are whole. We shall fly high and higher still We will not be caught and made tame We shan't long or need for we fear heartache Our fragility and sensitivity allows for a passion's blaze Dare we to try once more and lose our fire
