Passion

He recalls the days that they spent together

The nights they spent making love, all night

Days they thought that would last forever

Suddenly seem lost to sight

What happened to the people that they once were

And how did they get to where they are today?

The passion that once flamed is now a single ember

That’s slowly fading and crumbling away

 

He remembers how the scent of her perfume

Would drive him wild with desire

When a simple smile across a crowded room

Would reignite that fire

Though his love for her is never in doubt

How he misses that burning heat

He thought this desire could never burn out

Leaving him unneeded and obsolete

 

The love they hold is a strong now as it was then

But he misses the unbridled passion they’d bring

Oh if only they could live their lives over again!

But I guess he wouldn’t change a single thing
