I am writing you a letter
A love letter from a fading
Grey nuances on pink pastel
Colours of love beneath the shading
Letters changing into words
formed by love and sorrow
Moments from the past
when a today became a tomorrow
Have you ever felt the fiery heat?
The fever of love in your veins?
Have you ever given so much
that ashes is all that remains?
I know love can be unanswered
but I don't want to die bereft
I wanted to tell you so badly
but changed my mind before I left
Extinguished by the fatal flames
A secrecy never meant to be revealed
A letter written in blood and tears
And the fading...everlastingly concealed.
