I heard the tremor In your heartbeat I tasted ash Through my phone And between words Silence howled, Alone, alone, alone The air became our Oppressor The sun snuffed out Its light All I could do Was hold you And pretend it was Meant to be night And now, before the fire Lands and the music ends May we sway to the final dance? As the flames Descend Will you grip my hand And let the chaos mend? Every boiling tear That escapes My burning Lashes Preserves warm memories to be buried under Our dust _ Photo by user mimolag on Freeimages.com
