The embers of the fire burned out
Just as my love for you did
Slowly at first, then all at once
The silent lightning in the sky
Serves as my reminder that time continues
Even if the world seems to end
The stars continue shining
You said forever
Then you hurt me
Made me feel as if I was worth nothing
The dirt under your feet held more value
Yet the stars continued to shine
The fire left no trace besides the ashes
You hold no place in my heart
I will continue to hold a flame
Only this one isn't for you
It is me.
