"The Smoldering"
Amid the burning wreckage
as my body is wracked with pain
as the heart beats slower
creeping its way
to embrace an unknown fate
you reach out to me
calling my name
trying somehow desperately
to revive my spirit
as I feel life's grip slip away
like beautiful leaves in the autumn wind
the sting of tears blinds your eyes
for a moment
hold me close
in your fervent embrace
lying alone in the highway
under the blazing heat
of the merciless sun
safer to leave now
and allow the better
of your natures
to bridge the gap.
