Sungrazers
Sungrazers
Both search for that most desired.
They get burnt in the scorching rays.
Eyes tear from the glaring enlightenment.
The hero falls into the raging sun,
He burns to useless black ashes.
Now gone are the cool sweet moments.
The endless fire from the sun now surrounds.
The heroine is thrown into the void,
She freezes to useless black crystals.
Now gone are the warm sweet moments.
The endless cold of space now surrounds.
Both are slain by that life-giving light and forsaken.
They are engulfed in burning pain.
Eyes tearless as the stars forget their dreams.
