When the sun burns
So soft it curls
Like rain water, down
The sheets are made
Unmade, like crumpled paper
When love was together
When us was foreverShort lived, break down
Souls decay
Souls how they fadeWhen the moon burns,
So hard it furls
The wind it growls
The ebony creeps inShe's wondering
In her heart of hearts
It was never enoughAnd though she tried
To remain
Untouched by painThe stars burnt her
So still it hurls
Forward, to the end
