It seems so easy to lose yourself in a moment,
Watching the embers float up a starlit sky.
She’s all that I am thinking about.
Of when can I touch her next?

If I could toss myself within the flames,
Turn myself into the sweet sent of burning wood,
My thoughts into those glowing embers,
And let the wind carry me to her.
