Us Poem by chris schwartz

I am passionate,

And for that,
I have paid.
I believed in you
Laid the bricks for us
Just to watch the mortar
Blast it away.
It crumbled
And it succumbed
To another different
Highway
But I sure did enjoy
Riding with you
Down this rigid Highway.

Take away ecstacy

Take away lust
Strip it all down
Nothing left
But the two of us.
Still believe we
Got enough
To make it
To our dream.

Silent nights now
We don't know what to say
Respect for the hero
I watch us fade away.
I still watch the sunsets
But a part of your color
Shines through.
I know, I just understand
That a piece of me
Is in you.

It will be forever
Ingrained
In You.
