You and I
Bare faces branded in our truth
Raw lies cut loose in our eyes
Can’t hide from
You and I
A point now moot
.
Under an unreliable sun
We had become
The love all hope to be
But we could not succeed
But for awhile
When you and I
Were each others destiny
.
We tamed love
Rode wild sunsets
Set seductive wishes free
Didn’t I
Didn’t you
Have so much love for
You and me
.
But beat up hearts
Turn in time began to fall
On both our faces
In all our places
Finding dead end walls
Falling outs
From your tears
The fault that fell on them
Was mine
And so unforgivable dear
It was me
Who lost
True love for
You and I
.
Memories are just backs
Sacks filled with empty air
Endless sighs
Of the “who knows why”
Loves skin became so scared
A heat once so unstoppable
Burnt down and died
Like some old friend
The flames and fires
Along with desire
Blown away in the winds
Of you and I
.
