Where Frozen Embers Still Burn - Part 1
The night sky is of winter's grey seasonal turn and
deep within my soul, a chill comes from where
love's frozen embers still burn.
A cool breeze from across the sea does blow.
I know it was only yesterday, but I miss you so.
Living without your warm embrace, has left me
feeling alone and so out of place.
Tonight I snuggle to your memory and silently
pray you can feel and see that losing you has forever
changed me. Missing love's clinging attire, leaving only
the embers of what once was a raging fire.
Although I am frozen in time, a small ember remains
and each time it tries to burn, the flame is dowsed with
sliver of pain like ice, the same way it was, the night we lost
our dreams of a life. To live without you, how do I learn?
When my soul and I are waiting, where frozen embers still burn.
