Had to be staring into an empty hour-glass
Reach for an essential love no one can live without.
Rather sleepwalk in a shadow of uncertainty; never knowing the sail has been raised.
Let the laugh seep in and rip open a heart of stone covered steel.
Taken, never spoken for.
Living with flames on her heels.
Fire breathed into the soul of lives…a passion blackened by logic.
Here lies the body of a shooting star taken by the breath of a butterfly kiss.
May her soul live on forever.
