Embers Burn

When my eyes met fire

I could only just admire

And she danced on my tongue

Was it foolish how I clung?

There I watched as an ember formed

The beauty so wild, so free

My very own tiny dancer become reborn

And my mind was filled with glee

Watch as she struts a stage

Everyone loves her, as she laughs away

If I only I knew the next page

My life would never feel so grey

As my hand reached out, to touch an ember

I felt each month past me by

September, October, November

And suddenly nothing seemed so good, not even July

I let the pain resonate

I let it bottle up like an old rattler

But oh how I wished I could've celebrate

A love that left me like a stranded battler

It's okay to leave

And it's okay to admit

That you felt a little naive

You shouldn't have submit

At the end of the day

You will find your way

Even if you have to leave your old flame

There is always a muse, to fill your game.
