Amidst sweet smoke & a cool breeze.
Beneath a full moon & lost years.
Found lost in brown eyes & long tales.
Intrigued & yet my past freezes feelings.
Oh toiled heart & tarnished spirit.
Is who I was no longer me,
     the dreamer,
           the romantic,
                the lover,
                      a believer.
And yet in her words something stirred, is there hope I may
find myself again?
