Hoping, Failing

(Originally written on June 6th, 2004)

Falling in love with hearts full of gunpowder,
Shackles on both our feet, restricting contact,
May our courage and faith alone break them,
So that we can rid our shoulders of these black burdens,
That hide so cowardly in the shadow-filled corners,
To pounce when we are so sure we are safe,
Together I know that we can extinguish the fire,
That burns as a reminder of so many past failures.
