Fading

Can I die this death for you?

A kaleidoscope of memories

Fall to rubble in the mind

A thousand stories unwritten

Scatter words into dust

The sun rises

The sun sets

In between the self fades

Dying to remember you

Before we took shape

In breath and limb

Can you die this death for me?

And wipe the past from your eyes

The moon rises

The moon sets

In between our lives merge

In this cosmic heat

This burning love
