She

She
        doesn't love me
She
        will not touch me
Her
        warmth is distant
Her
        fire is dim
I
        cannot leave her
I
        her kisses dream
We
        sit together
We
        in sunlight bathe
Our
        paths are fixed
Our
        hearts are weak
Time
        cleaves our friendship
Time
        repels our touch
Fate
        together briefly
Fate
        betrays our trust
Darkness
        stills the fire
Darkness
        kills the light
Tears
        moisten pillows
Tears
        parch my heart
Silence
        hollow echoes
Silence
        fills the sky
Peace
        descends in mist
Peace
        heralds the end
