Ancient Tower

Down comes the monument of love 
Falling apart
Ashes fly like shooting stars
Abort the scene with caution
Beware those shards of broken hearts
piling up,
How great a mess we made
There's no love to save

​

Ancient towers
Wall to wall, the groan of air
The screams of grounds
As it all comes down

​

Rescue mission on pause
Indefinitely
Build me up a museum
Of these broken memories
Your smile, a souvenir
Clutching on to my brain
As I watch it come down
Crumbling down to the ground
Truth be told,
Toxic fumes were spewing out of our love,

and I still miss it all
Mind's all jumbled up, and yet remains your face,

as clear as day.

​

Still, we watch it all fall down
Down, it all comes down.
