No Way Back

She spits her fire and he tosses his gasoline; If he lights a match; she inhales smoke; The damage can be seen everywhere; And combustion will soon accelerate. In a visionary dream; a message has appeared; And from the eye of the Gul; the question is asked; "Do you remember" Protruding from the surface of the water; On a single scorched pillar; A Falcon stands his guard; Much like the Gargoyle;guarding the dead. And the writer writes an epitaph; Of a life he once called home; And the rider waits to board the train; To places not yet known. As all the bridges smolder; Even still the fire attacks; So they turn to go their separate ways; And there is no turning back.
