As We Waste Away
August 16, 2012
We sit and listen
in a peaceful haze
to the music play
As we waste away
We watch the stars
dance and sway
in the darkest light
As we waste away
We stop time
as our hearts stitch together
and beat in unity
As we waste away
We close our eyes
as love imprints itself
on our lips
As we waste away
We breathe each other in
one more time
as our hearts crawl to a stop
As we waste away.
