Catastases

The Beginning of the End
Photoshop Manipulation by The Real Cie

Good people are like candles
They burn themselves up to give others light
You gave me your promise
With the expectation
That we might know love together
The length and measures of our days would wax long with love
You were and still are the one
But I became suspicious as I always do
Causing the strength of our love to be eroded into catastases
Marking time until the inevitable tragedy
I was wrong
Though I have always been poor, your love made me rich in spirit
Now I have only memories
Of a love that could have lasted forever

For Gerry from Pepper
and for Gem from Cie
