Why Did the Fire Go Out

What happened to me
What happened to you
We don't remember
The things we use to do

No more tenderness
No more bliss
Cold shoulders
What did we miss

All I do is shout
All you do is pout
Cries and tears
When did the fire go out

G'day Timothy … too many distractions these days and usually too late when the doubt turns to realisation - thank you Timothy - Lindsay

It take a strong constitution to hold a relationship together at times.

Well captured, Timothy. So sad when couples lose sight of the beauty of their relationship.
