Your turbulent emotions,
dragging my ragged soul.
Going through the motions,
hoarding the time, we stole.

We lit a match and watched it burn,
setting the world ablaze.
Searching spirits that yearned,
struck dumb by the others gaze.

Finding harmony in the violence,
two hearts trapped in stone.
Finding peace in the silence,
of being together; alone.

Swallowing each other’s pain,
each a half that made a whole.
Alighting the others passions,
same speed; same soul.
