Queen of Fire

i’ve waited so long for this
lying in the dark
gazing at the stars
wondering
where did your love go?
to the bottom of the sea
crushed far beneath the waves?
to the back of the line
ridden off the rails
tumbling from a bridge?

i’ve waited so very long for this
you’re drinking yourself to sleep
i’m wondering
wondering
where did my love go?
lying in the dark
dreaming of the stars
flying up to the highest of highs
then crashing down deep
below the dusty earth
