Acquiesced through silent passion
An honest heart’s embrace 
Stoking the embers lying ashen 
A shadow too strong to face

Regardless of a flame so strong
Fickle time does not remain 
Condemning these feelings to prolong 
I find myself enchained

Blessed indifference may lie ahead 
And darkness approaches near 
But I stay to sleep in that bed 
For those embers I so endear
