Time keeps ticking, moving on
Onwards slowly marching
Only now I know too late
Love is broken, fleeing
And hiding in dark of night
There is no forgiveness
Even when on bended knee
Forgotten is but not forgiven
Only then do we really see
Running fast and running scared
Flames burn ever brighter
Orange sparks fly in the sky
Roses that bloom by light of moon
Gone are lover's promises
In time all is forgotten
Visions come to those who seek
Evening abounds in melody
None are wise only blind
Erudition may give the answer
Stillness throughout the night
Silently last breath drawn
