Again. A poem.

And just as quickly
As we fanned the sparks
And the flames licked
And careened across 
Our forms unsubtle 
The light expired
As we doused the wick

And thoughts heavy
With hyperbole
Angst and fear 
And honesty
Fell on deafened ears
Once dear to me

I turned away
I shouldered blame
And dreamed of you
Just one more time
Again
