Late that night, I thought the sky finally went down I roll off the bed, making sense of my frown Angry, the way I slept the nights before this Stupid, all these are pointless, now faded had the bliss I padded down the stairs, blinked open the lights No wonder I was alone for so many nights Memory, fail me now when the pain is definite Love, don't give up on me, is this all there is to it? The sadness nor the peace won't settle this time When leaves fall, break down and addle the crime Late that night, I find myself wishing for things in deep Under the falling stars, I long for things I couldn't keep
The way love lost and love lies are battering, still All the while I begot feelings, rolling down the hill Save me now, before I fall down the point of no return Too late, fire caught and now I'm starting to burn Wild dreams, fantasies, in embraces we learn The heart, under your touch, visibly begins to churn It was pretty, the way happy endings are But as fairytales go, never is trouble a faraway star We are content but let's face it—we are never enough You went your way, calling our found love a bluff Even when things sour and papers rain flood Late that night, I decided I'll fight, meet blood with blood
Lines blurred and times repeated on endless seams Every day, I get up, having forgiven you in my dreams What is love now that digits and chances run low We have tired ourselves out, keeping up the show But why can't we tell the truth even in slumber? What are we hiding as things burning is a slow blunder? Pain, stay away but come back when I need you Why did we want love, when sacrifices we can't ensue Back then, I knew we didn't understand much We grow older and now time won't go back to such Under the feeding lights of people's eyes, I fall Late that night, I know I held back saving my soul
I find myself sipping coffee on the kitchen floor I think about what is wrong and the way it was before Gone were the winds of love every morning I get Replaced with cold stares against cups of coffee on set What should I do, what should I let go? The lesson learned is that in love, things change fast and slow Though love is sweet, love ties you against yourself Your dreams, passions, fantasies—love takes all in theft No matter what you do, love will destroy you, heart and all The challenge is to rise up, take it in, blow after blow But we failed—utter silence—now in pieces I reside Late that night, I took one sip and realized I gave up our fight

Aaaaah. This is a poem detailing the process of love being found and love slowly dying whilst being there to witness it. Sparks fade, mistakes surface. Will you be able to hold on past those?
