The fire within,
Once so new,
Now gone,
Put out,
I have lost you.
Sad is my heart,
For a time held by few.
Closed doors now stand,
Between me and you.
We had the chance,
For a moment we tried.
I took my stance,
Neither of us lied.
Your wall is too tall.
I knock on the gate.
Never you answer,
It is just too late.
An effort so grand,
For just a touch of your hand.
Pull back you do.
I now have a clue.
You I let go,
Your pain does so flow.
I offered my love.
Friendship above,
Forever I stand,
Your greatest fan.
Lessons you taught me,
Simple and true,
Trust and be open,
Now I thank you.
I see now my love,
The time has gone past.
The moment ,the second,
A shadow is cast.
The wall is too high,
The answer is true,
My love goes with you,
I whisper adieu.
