Lighting The Ashes

by Vincent DONNAHUE III - Cancer

The flames of passion burn no longer,
Nothing is the same no more,
In ashes everything must turn,
We didn't understand it before.
Now we can't light the ashes,
Hoping they will burn.
Our present expectations are invain,
Like if our prayers stayed unhurd.
With or without each other,
Betwean two evils,
Which is worse?
Tendence to light the the cold ashes
Remains our fatal curse.
